I'm not sure to what degree PowerBI is touch-screen friendly, but I dealt a lot with Qlik Sense (another BI / dashboarding platform) and it's quite touch-screen friendly -- filtering, selections, drilling down, etc. because its UI was designed for tablets.
What I was missing sometimes is the ability to easily put a dashboard on a large screen (like the Whiteboard) during a meeting in order to answer questions that arise during meetings -- what the last week looks like, what region had best sales, what products did they sell most of all, etc. Because of the visual UI, data can be queried and explored right from a dashboard.
Yes, a dashboard could be just screen-shared from a laptop, but that would be a one-man show. Sharing it on the Whiteboard would let anyone near the screen to support their points by bringing up relevant analytics.
