Suggestions for your work get discovered as data professionals
As data professionals, you are familiar with ways to show your work to leadership, colleague, or someone you know. Many good books (Storytelling with Data by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic and DataStory: Explain Data and Inspire Action Through Story by Nancy Duarte) covers this topic of telling stories with data. Getting the work done is only part of the journey. Your work should also be your channel to show to the world.
Have you considered showing your work to someone you don't know? In a blog post, from YouTube, from a webinar, or at a conference?
The storytelling should not end with someone you're familiar with. You can reveal the stories behind the curtain and share them more broadly. People across the internet would love to learn the stories about how you create/develop an excellent product/result from conducting use case analysis, data collection, model building, A/B testing, and business impact.
