Presenting Metrics and Definitions

Content coming soon...

Suggested Topics

• Why metric definitions matter: reproducibility, shared understanding, trust in numbers
• Metric definition structure: name, description, calculation method, data source, refresh frequency
• Presenting your Metabase dashboard: framing insights for a business audience, avoiding jargon
• Presenting your Streamlit app: explaining what the dashboard monitors and why each metric matters
• 5-minute presentation format: what changed, why it matters, what action it drives
• Common presentation mistakes: too many numbers, undefined axes, missing context
• Documenting dashboards: where metric definitions live (dbt docs, README, Notion page)
