Tableau Hall of Fame Visionary, Next Level Tableau Founder, and former Makeover Monday co-lead Andy Kriebel is the final guest of season 6!

Zach and Andy dive deep into the evolving Tableau community landscape. They unpack the challenges and opportunities for engagement amid major shifts, like Salesforce's acquisition of Tableau, and the migration of vibrant discussions from Twitter to LinkedIn.

Andy shares his concerns about the waning emphasis on Tableau Desktop at events such as DataFam Europe, while both host and guest stress the vital role community plays in sparking innovation and keeping users inspired.

The conversation also explores fresh strategies to attract and retain members in this changing era.

Plus, Andy offers valuable insights from his teaching with Next Level Tableau, highlighting how it accelerates skill-building and creates a supportive space for users ready to elevate their expertise.

A must-listen for anyone passionate about the future of the Tableau ecosystem!
