Introduction:

In my role at L'Oréal, I had the opportunity to undertake a challenging and impactful dashboarding mission. This mission aimed to improve data management, accessibility, and decision-making processes within the organization.

Motivations:

Undertaking this mission to develop a comprehensive dashboarding solution for L'Oréal was driven by my passion for tackling substantial projects from end to end. I was eager to embark on a journey that involved extracting, transforming, and visualizing data to deliver impactful business dashboards. The opportunity to work on a large-scale project, starting from the initial data extraction, through the intricate process of data transformation, and culminating in the creation of insightful dashboards, excited me. I was motivated by the chance to leverage my skills and expertise to make a significant impact on L'Oréal's data management and decision-making capabilities.

I. Data Migration for Improved Accessibility

Developing and Executing a Comprehensive Data Migration Plan

During this mission, I developed and executed a comprehensive data migration plan to transfer over 1TB of data from the local SharePoint to the headquarters SharePoint. This involved meticulous planning, seamless coordination with various teams, and ensuring a smooth transition. By connecting the headquarters SharePoint to Microsoft Power BI, we achieved improved accessibility and efficiency for business insights. Stakeholders across the organization now had easy access to real-time, reliable data.

II. Enhancing Data Reliability through Advanced Data Cleansing

Implementing Advanced Data Cleansing Techniques

To enhance the accuracy and reliability of the insights derived from the data, I implemented advanced data cleansing techniques within Power BI. This involved thorough analysis, identification, and rectification of data errors and inconsistencies. Through my expertise, we achieved an impressive 80% reduction in data errors, significantly improving the reliability of the business insights. Decision-makers could now confidently rely on the data presented in the dashboards to make informed choices.

III. Collaboration with Department Heads for Customized Dashboards

Identifying Key Metrics and KPIs

Collaborating closely with department heads at L'Oréal was vital to the success of this mission. By working collaboratively, we identified key metrics and KPIs specific to each department's objectives and requirements. This collaboration ensured that the dashboards catered to the unique needs of each department. As a result, we created over 20 customized dashboards that provided actionable insights for decision-making. These dashboards enabled department heads to drive strategic initiatives, optimize processes, and achieve their respective business goals.

Conclusion:

Through my involvement in this dashboarding mission at L'Oréal, I demonstrated expertise in data migration, data cleansing, and the effective utilization of Microsoft Power BI. The project's success was attributed to collaboration with department heads and the creation of customized dashboards that provided actionable insights for decision-making.

Overall, this mission showcased my ability to transform complex data into meaningful visualizations and valuable insights. By improving data accessibility, reliability, and collaboration, I empowered L'Oréal to make data-driven decisions, drive strategic initiatives, and achieve business objectives effectively.
