Leveraging AI tools for critiquing and enhancing reports and dashboards can significantly improve their quality and effectiveness. Free AI tools such as the [Report Enhancer](https://chat.openai.com/g/g-nl3yYvd1D-report-enhancer) GPT, can be used for this purpose, which checks your report against the International Business Communication Standards (IBCS).

<!--endintro-->

### Understanding IBCS Standards

The International Business Communication Standards (IBCS) are widely recognized best practices for the design of business reports and dashboards. These standards focus on:

- **Consistency:** Harmonizing design for easy understanding and comparison.
- **Simplicity:** Reducing to the essential to avoid non-data ink.
- **Focus:** Directing attention to the important information.

### How to Use AI for Critiquing Reports and Dashboards

1. **For Public Reports:** If your reports or dashboards are publicly accessible, simply provide the AI tool with the link. The tool will analyze and offer suggestions based on the IBCS standards.

2. **For Private Reports:** For internal reports, take a screenshot and provide it to the AI tool. This GPT has had "Train on this data" disabled, so the information will not end up in ChatGPT's long term knowledge.

### Process Overview

- **Upload or Link:** Go to [Report Enhancer](https://chat.openai.com/g/g-nl3yYvd1D-report-enhancer) and provide your report or dashboard via a link or screenshot.
- **AI Analysis:** The AI tool will analyze the design, layout, and presentation of your data.
- **Recommendations:** Receive feedback and recommendations aligned with IBCS standards.
- **Implement Changes:** Apply the suggestions to enhance clarity, readability, and effectiveness.



By incorporating AI tools in line with IBCS standards, you can significantly enhance the quality and effectiveness of your business reports and dashboards. This approach not only streamlines the process but also ensures that your reports meet high standards of clarity and professionalism.

**Tip:** Always review AI suggestions critically and ensure they align with your specific reporting goals and audience needs.

The better way to get an appointment with someone is to throw an appointment their way. You have a higher chance of it sticking if it appears in their calendar. You will be amazed at your success rate. That said, make sure you soften the appointment with something like “if there is a better time for you, let me know”.

It is a good idea to send the appointment a few weeks out, it is less confronting and less demanding than finding a meeting in your calendar for the next day (or the same week).

The obvious caveat is that you shouldn't send meeting requests to people who have no idea who you are, that's just spam in a different vehicle.

[WSUS ](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-server-update-services/get-started/windows-server-update-services-wsus)is a great way to keep Microsoft operating systems and products up to date. It can be painful to manage, but with a bit of work it is a great tool. The only issue is that it cannot be used to manage any non-Microsoft apps. If your environment is big enough, you can use [Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/understand/introduction) (formerly SCCM) for 3rd party apps - but it is not worth setting up for smaller environments.

Leading questions can result in biased or unhelpful answers from ChatGPT. To obtain objective and useful responses, it's important to ask open-ended, unbiased questions that allow the model to explore a topic without being influenced by the phrasing of the prompt.

<!--endintro-->

Here are some tips for avoiding leading questions:

* Use neutral language that doesn't imply a specific answer or point of view
* Focus on asking questions that encourage exploration and elaboration
* Avoid making assumptions or expressing your opinions within the question itself
