**Hands-on Lipstick on a Pig - Improving a Power BI Report Step by Step**

You've been handed a report that could best be described as "visually suboptimal" or simply - "terrible".

You would like nothing more than to spend the hours it deserves in a bid to make it much more clear, concise and useable, but the simple fact of the matter is that nobody wants to pay you for spending those hours.

But - sometimes closing your eyes, groaning inwardly, and passing the report up the chain just isn't an option either. Something needs to be done, but it needs to be done quickly in order to make the report at least useable while not costing a fortune.

This session will walk through every step how to turn a really bad report into something decent, discuss how to prioritize content and why accessibility is not only useful but vital for good report design.

This session will not only show you what can be done but also explain why it not only may be done, but also why it really should.
