Data Literacy Resources

Following on from my interview with Jordan Morrow – Global Head of Data Literacy – from Qlik I have put together a list of data literacy resources.  You can use these to further not only your own data literacy but to get the discussions flowing within your organisation:

  1. Just to add a book, I would recommend reading Data Fluency: Empowering Your Organization with Effective Data Communication by Zach Gemignani et al. http://a.co/euXhpdI
    In my opinion, the data visualization design principles discussed in the book are not optimal, so I would skip this part.
    Does anybody else have any recommendations for books on data literacy?
