Extracting Maximum Value from KPI Cards in Power BI | Alex Kolokolov

**Please note the earlier than usual start time.

SESSION TRACK:
Power BI

SESSION OUTLINE:
Alex Kolokolov will will talk about best practices/approaches to highlighting key indicators and additional measures. A common issue is when the customer requests that you allocate 10-15 indicators to a dashboard, and it appears to be overloaded. Alex will share some best practices for KPI cards, how to carefully design them, how to group them into meaningful blocks of cards, and how to add additional indicators.

During this session, you will:

• Discover the best practices for designing and grouping indicators into meaningful card blocks;
• Ensure your dashboard delivers a clear message without overwhelming the audience;
• Gain insights into the development of the custom visual multi-target KPI; and
• Participate in a technical session on setting up the developer-friendly multi-target KPI tool.
