Build dashboards your managers open every Monday Each one starts from a decision, and its numbers match finance's

Start with the decisions your teams make every week Each chart serves one, like on-time delivery choosing next month's carrier

SalesPipeline by stage

DecisionWhich deals get the manager's time this week

FinanceCash, actual and forecast

DecisionWhether to draw on the credit line this month

OperationsOn-time delivery, by carrier lane

DecisionWhich carrier gets next month's volume

PeopleLeavers, by team and month

DecisionWhich managers need support first

Customer serviceOpen tickets, this week

Supply chainStock by warehouse

Then choose the tool your managers will actually open Power BI, Tableau, Looker, or the one you have, by where you run

If you run on

Microsoft 365, Azure, and a lot of Excel

Power BI
Good
It lives in Teams, and many companies already license it with Microsoft 365.
Watch for
Each report can carry its own model, so numbers drift between reports.
If you run on

Salesforce, and analysts who like to explore

Tableau
Good
It's strong for exploring data visually, and it sits next to your CRM.
Watch for
The people who build reports need the costlier licence.
If you run on

Google Cloud and BigQuery

Looker
Good
Every report reads from one shared model of your metrics.
Watch for
Someone has to build that model before the first chart.
If you run on

A tool your managers already open

Keep it
Good
We fix the definitions under it, like on-time delivery, and retire what nobody uses.
Watch for
Moving tools rarely fixes numbers that disagree.

Tie every number to the ledger before it ships And each manager sees only their own region of the operations review
