Hey Larry, what should we call this thing?

RIFFin’

On Dashboards

Chuck and Keith

A Riff • Wikipedia - In music, a riff is an ostinato; a repeated chord progression, pattern, or melody, often played by rhythmic instruments. The riff is the base of the musical composition. They are most common in rock music, funk, and jazz.

In the music world… • Most musicians find influence from other musicians from their past. • Riffin’ is a common practice where musicians take a good idea from the past and make it their own

So what?

Teams need jumpstarts Dashboarding is easy, right?

Create a Dashboard for your team to Riff off of!

Executive Dashboarding • Who are your execs? • Do they care? • How can we make them care?
