A couple of weeks ago, I published a Tableau Public workbook called [Tableau Dashboard Layout Templates](https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/jeff.plattner4532/viz/TableauDashboardLayoutTemplates/1_1). The workbook contains thirty Tableau Dashboard layouts and enables any user to download the workbook and quickly copy/paste a layout into their Tableau Desktop workbook. Upon sharing this resource on social media (Twitter and LinkedIn) I was greeted with a wave of positive feedback, with the main theme being that people were thankful for a great time-saver. 

As a user of the templates myself, I can attest to this, as I’ve already used them on several occasions to quickly mock-up dashboard ideas. Prior to publishing the templates, I was finding myself creating dashboards from scratch over and over again. So, I was eager to create a solution that would not only help me move away from that approach, but also help others who may have found themselves in the same situation.
