I need your comprehensive assistance with my MBAN 5140 group project analyzing OMIS Store's business performance. We must create four interactive Tableau dashboards with supporting stories to understand what's driving financial performance and develop specific, actionable recommendations to improve sales and profitability. We'll present our findings and recommendations to the executive management team (our instructor and classmates) in a 12-minute presentation.
