Data Literacy

Client Overview

Our client, a top European low-cost carrier (LCC), operates in a high-pressure, high-volume environment where margins are thin and agility is everything. With millions of passengers served annually, success depends on making smart, fast, data-driven decisions — from optimizing routes to enhancing the traveler experience.

The technology was in place. The challenge? Turning that potential into widespread, daily business impact.

The Challenge: From Tools to Adoption

The client had already invested heavily in building a modern analytics ecosystem. With Tableau deployed across teams and a solid data infrastructure underneath, the technical foundation was robust.

But to truly realize value, the next evolution wasn’t technical — it was human.

The gap was clear: business users had the tools, but lacked the confidence, context, or culture to fully embrace them. Teams needed more than dashboards — they needed a shared language of data, and a way to embed it into decision-making across functions.

The Partnership: Strategic Trust Meets Tactical Execution
What set us apart was our embedded understanding of the client — not just their data, but their business DNA.

This wasn’t a cold start. Through prior collaborations, we had built credibility across their teams and developed deep insight into how they worked, how they decided, and where friction lived.

Combined with our deep Tableau expertise — a platform core to their analytics stack — we brought both strategic alignment and technical depth to the table. We weren’t outsiders delivering a one-size-fits-all solution. We were a trusted partner with the context, the tools, and the momentum to elevate their analytics maturity to the next level.

The Solution: Building a Culture, Not Just Skills

We led with people — because culture doesn’t scale through software alone. Together, we co-created two foundational initiatives that catalyzed lasting change:

1. Data Analytics Adoption Training Program

Tailored, hands-on, and role-specific, this program helped business users build real confidence with Tableau — not just in theory, but in real scenarios tied to their function. Training wasn’t passive. It was active, applicable, and empowering.

2. Data-Driven Community Platform

Endorsed by C-level leadership, this was one of the organization’s first grassroots, user-centric data communities. It became a space for sharing best practices, solving challenges together, and reinforcing a shared sense of progress. In short, it turned data from a technical topic into a cultural asset.

The Impact: From Literacy to Leadership

The transformation wasn’t just felt — it was measured.

  • 8.2/10 NPS for the first round of training, reflecting strong engagement and satisfaction.

  • 10/10 NPS on Tableau user proficiency — a clear signal that users weren’t just trained, they were empowered.

  • Widespread increase in data literacy across business units, enabling faster, more informed decision-making.

  • Greater collaboration across departments, with data acting as a unifier rather than a blocker.

  • And most powerfully — a wave of user-led business improvement initiatives, sparked not by mandates, but by newfound confidence and curiosity.

This was about unlocking a multiplier effect — and it worked.

In Conclusion

Your analytics tools are only as powerful as the culture that surrounds them. Want to turn your investment into adoption — and adoption into results?
