A reporting template for data collaboration
Blog post from Snowplow
Facilitating effective communication among data teams and stakeholders in projects is a significant challenge, particularly when dealing with domain-specific or non-technical teams. To address this, a Miro-based template for hosting a report-building workshop has been developed, aimed at aligning data professionals, engineers, and business lines to create valuable data products. This half-day workshop template helps visualize the foundational elements necessary for producing actionable reports and emphasizes the importance of understanding stakeholder needs, starting with fundamental questions about the report's purpose and potential impact. The template can be accessed in PDF form or directly used in Miro, and it stresses the importance of collaboration and buy-in from relevant stakeholders. A successful workshop requires coordination and clear communication about each participant's role, leveraging both real-time and asynchronous participation. Ultimately, the process aims to deliver insights that drive organizational growth, as demonstrated by an example involving a content performance dashboard collaboration.
