Want to Expose Patterns & Trends
 Need to use right visual
presentation for exposing
patterns.
 Many times the pattern is not
obvious – and using alternative
presentations can help expose
the anomaly.
It’s like trying to find a
needle in a haystack
 How will business processes
change once the patterns are
found?
