Yes, you can show two measures in a Power BI map:
- Bubble Map: Use size for total alumni and color for senior leadership count.
- Filled Map: Use color for senior leadership and show total alumni in tooltips.
- Advanced Maps: Use ArcGIS or custom visuals for layered views by industry/function.

Hi powerbiexpert22 ,
There are a few different ways to do what you’re trying to achieve. However, if you could share a few more details or maybe post a draft of what you have in mind, it would be easier to help you out.That said, one option could be to create a single measure that combines the other two (in this case, “total of alumni” and “total of leadership”) and use that on the map — or even use the second measure in a tooltip.

Could you try:
- Using bubble size to represent total alumni per geography.- Use bubble color intensity or color saturation to represent alumni involved in senior leadership.
Other than this the options would be to have multiple charts side by side showing both values or field parameter to switch between the fields in the map.
