Most business professionals have a working knowledge of Microsoft Excel, but there’s always that one person in the office who blows their coworkers away with their spreadsheet magic. Whatever the need, they can do it—like performing calculations on data, creating dynamic charts and graphs, or debugging spreadsheets for optimal performance. Wouldn’t you like to be that person?
Besides being one of the most widely used software applications in business, Excel can vastly simplify and speed up existing business tasks. It’s useful for organizing data, analyzing and presenting data for communication and decision-making, and solving complex business problems. It’s a skill worth honing in any field of business—marketing, management, sales, operations, HR, and more.
