I would like to express profound gratitude to the numerous individuals who have helped me in my journey over the years. My father, Stuart, introduced me to the world of computers to me when he showed me that I could make the family computer do anything I wanted with code. I stand on the shoulders of giants. The Tableau training team expanded my horizons. The members of the Tableau community, leaders in the forums, designers, and bloggers continue to broaden my understanding of Tableau and data visualization. Joe Mako, Jonathan Drummey, Ben Jones, and many others have inspired me to press on and never quit learning. I especially would like to express appreciation for the reviewers. Shawn and Bridget provided key insights, critical challenges, and deeply felt encouragement. Thank you also to my wonderful wife, Kara, who has encouraged me and loved me every step of the way!
Bridget Cogley , interpreter turned analyst, first found Tableau in 2010. It was a perfect fit for her analytical mind and artistic nature and rapidly became both a vocation and avocation. Bridgets background includes training, HR, management, grant writing, RFP response creation, sales support, and data analysis. In 2014, she became a consultant and is now Joshuas coworker at Teknion Data Solutions.
Bridget is a Tableau Ambassador and Zen Master and blogs at TableauFit.com. Her passion for learning combined with her love of Tableau has led to the creation of many beautiful and insightful dashboards that can be found on her blog. Bridget is also an accomplished speaker and webinar producer, and she actively shares her knowledge of and passion for Tableau frequently through social media and can be followed on Twitter at @WindsCogley.
Bridget is incredibly thankful to Joshua for the opportunity to review this book and wishes it was around when she was learning Tableau. Shes also grateful to her family, friends, and the people that helped make her Tableau career possible.
Shawn Wallwork started using Tableau back in 2011. Now five plus years and three Zen Masters awards later, he is the founder of Remote Tableau Consultants. He works with customers all over the globe, from London to Melbourne, and many points in between. He works either creating Tableau workbooks, or doing one-on-one consulting to help clients better understand how to make Tableau work the way they want it to. As his company name suggests, he does this work remotely from the comfort of his own home in Placitas, New Mexico!
Shawn happily agreed to review Joshuas book Leaning Tableau 10, because as a fellow Zen Master, he was confident this would be an in-depth, and accurate book explaining how Tableau works. To be honest the technical review of his book was quite easy, since Joshua has such an in-depth understanding on how Tableau works at the internal, base level.
As a technical reviewer of this book, the only person I want to thank is the Author: Joshua Milligan. He has now written two great books on Tableau! I thank him for allowing me to be a part of his efforts.
