Julia Zukrigl ist promovierte Verhaltensforscherin, die Data Scientist wurde und bei so manchen Datenprojekt einfach nicht zu Entscheidern und Usern durchgedrungen ist. Dann hat sie sich an ihren Ursprung in den Verhaltenswissenschaften erinnert. Sie hat das Wissen über menschliches Entscheidungs- und Informationsverhalten auf die Welt der Daten umgelegt, mit Kommunikationswerkzeugen verbunden und in einen Methodenkoffer verpackt. Ab dann hatten sie und ihre Kollegen Erfolg bei Entscheidern, Kunden und Usern. Irgendwann nannte man das, was sie tut, dann Data Storytelling. Heute teilt sie diesen Methodenkoffer mit Datenexperten als Trainerin im DATA story LAB.
