Data can be intimidating for many people. Fisk's book provides a valuable lifeline to anyone who aspires to start using data on a more regular basis but doesn't know where to begin or how to get started. She lays out the key data concepts and skills you'll need to initiate your journey into the numbers with confidence. Brent Dykes, Chief Data Storyteller, Analytics Hero, LLC Thanks to technology, love it or not, data is everywhere. This book serves as an essential guide that helps all develop comfort and confidence in not just understanding and navigating data better, but in embracing and leveraging it in ways that help us improve the way we live and work. A must-read! Jake Sapirstein, Founder and Head of Strategy, LiftCentro In this book Selena shows you exactly how to integrate data and storytelling in a succinct, easy-to-understand and practical way.

CEOs and HR leaders - you need to get I'm Not a Numbers Person for every employee! Geraldine Ree, Experienced SVP, author and speaker 'Emotional' and 'engaging' are not words commonly associated with analytical books, but Selena's storytelling method breathes life into the numbers.

Ian Wiltshire, Chief Information Officer Selena's work engages, inspires and challenges people in an authentic manner. Personnel in our organisation are richer for the opportunity to have experienced Selena's passionate message that is so relevant to contemporary business.
