"Tableau is a game-changing company in business analytics and technology and I'm excited to join the team," says Mendonca. "I look forward to working with organisations across the ANZ region to help them see and understand their data and empower people to make better decisions."

"Australia and New Zealand's organisations are pursuing analytics initiatives to leverage data driven decisions in a fast and easy way," says JY Pook, vice oresident for the Asia Pacific region at Tableau Software. "We are excited to expand the power of data analytics and Tableau to this region.

Pook says, "Nigel Mendonca will lead our efforts to grow the Tableau footprint in this important market with focus on customer success."
