Book Description
Tableau in Action 2025 is your end-to-end blueprint for becoming a high-impact Tableau practitioner. Whether you're starting from scratch or scaling your analytics skills, this guide helps you move from simple charts to enterprise-grade dashboards and predictive models.
The book begins with essential Tableau concepts-from connecting to Excel, SQL, or cloud data, to building calculated fields, table calculations, and Level of Detail expressions. You'll explore Tableau Prep for reshaping messy data and build strong foundations in design thinking, visual storytelling, and business-first analytics.
Then it's time to go deeper.
You'll create dynamic dashboards with filter actions, drill-downs, responsive layouts, and mobile views. Discover how to use trend lines, clusters, and Explain Data to uncover hidden patterns. Integrate TabPy to run Python code for churn prediction and time-series forecasting-all inside Tableau.
Hands-on chapters bring theory to life through real industry use cases-from sales pipelines and revenue forecasts to healthcare KPIs and HR turnover analysis. You'll also learn to publish dashboards, secure user access, schedule refreshes, and optimize performance on Tableau Server or Cloud.
