Are there resources or good examples you would recommend?

I liked "Signal: Understanding What Matters in a World of Noise" by Stephen Few.

I really enjoyed Storytelling with Data: A Data Visualization Guide for Business Professionals by Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic. The author really breaks down the individual elements of good/bad visualizations using case studies with lots of actionable advice. Highly recommended.

There is a book called. "how to lie with statistics" by Huff that should probably be required reading for everyone. It's not very technical and a pretty quick read
