In short
What is the Data Storytelling program?
A two-day program on turning raw data into clear narratives for decision-makers. Combine machine learning pattern-finding with GenAI drafting and no-code visuals.
Your team turns raw data into clear narratives for decision-makers, combining machine learning pattern-finding with GenAI drafting and no-code visuals.
Sales and marketing alone account for 28% of generative AI’s potential value, the single largest pool, much of it in turning data into persuasive communication (McKinsey, 2025). Source: McKinsey, AI in the workplace, 2025
A clear narrative moves decisions. We have turned raw data into the insight that changed how a Malaysian retailer priced and placed its products. See a case study.
What your team will be able to do
- Use the Story Arc framework to structure a data narrative.
- Find patterns in data with machine learning.
- Draft narratives with GenAI in multiple languages.
- Design high-impact visuals with no-code tools.
- Set guardrails against algorithmic bias.

Who runs it
This program is run by industry practitioners who have shipped AI inside regulated enterprises across banking, government, manufacturing, and telco. It is led by Peter Kua, our AI and data science lead, a core contributor to Malaysia’s National Big Data Analytics Framework under MDEC and co-author of Malaysia’s AI Adoption Blueprints in 2019 and 2020. You are learning from people who have built this in production, not read about it. Peter’s commentary on AI adoption and workforce capability has appeared in The Star, theSun, Singapore Business Review, e27, and DagangNews, and on RTM Berita’s Tech Today.
A chart is not an argument. This program teaches teams to turn data into a story a decision-maker acts on.
Common questions
Is this program HRDC claimable?
Yes. It is claimable through HRD Corp under SBL and SBL-Khas. GrowthPro Asia is an HRDC-registered provider, and we handle the claim paperwork so it stays audit-ready. For most registered employers the levy covers most or all of the cost.
Do we need a technical or coding background?
No. This is a no-code and low-code program built for business teams. You work in tools your people already use, on your own tasks. We handle the technical depth so your team can focus on applying AI to real work, not writing software.
Is it delivered in-house or as a scheduled cohort?
Both. Most teams run it in-house over two days, built around their own use cases, which is where adoption holds best. A scheduled cohort is available when you want a smaller group to join alongside peers from other organisations.
Will it actually stick after the two days?
That is the design goal. We measure adoption, not attendance, define the target workflows up front, and provide post-training support so AI use holds on the job. Most AI rollouts underdeliver on adoption, not tooling, so that is where we focus.
How is the cost set?
We do not publish a fixed price. Cost depends on in-house versus scheduled delivery, group size, and how far we customise to your sector and use cases. It is HRD Corp claimable, so for most registered employers the levy covers most or all of it. Tell us your group size and format for an indicative quote.
What is data storytelling, in practice?
It is making data land with the people who decide. We combine pattern-finding with GenAI drafting and no-code visuals so your team turns a dataset into a clear narrative a board or client will actually act on.
Who is this for?
Analysts, managers, and anyone who presents data to decision-makers. No design or coding skill is needed; the tools handle the visuals so your team can focus on the message.
