546: Teaching Orgs to Question Themselves

from Explicit Measures Podcast Hosted by PowerBI.Tips

Mike & Tommy dive into why data literacy might be missing its most important lesson — not how to read a chart, but how to question the story it's telling. Drawing from a Nightingale article on graph literacy and self-skepticism, they explore whether polished dashboards are quietly building cultures of data compliance over data curiosity. They break down how motivated skepticism, biased interpretation, and over-trusted KPIs show up in real Power BI environments — and what BI teams can do to become critical-thinking coaches, not just report builders.
