Predict to Win in Business with Excel (or Numbers)
Find the Meaning in Spreadsheet Reports
If spreadsheets are used in your work, this course will change the way you look at them.
Working hard IN a business, there is precious little time to work ON it, to make things better. When time is found, trying to see what matters in columns and rows packed with too much data but too little meaning is a waste of precious resources!
In this coures you will learn to transform data from existing reports in a few minutes with a flick of a pen or a mouse, to know with precision what you need to do, and not do.

- Why are the Profit and Loss (P&L) and the Balance Sheet done the way they are
- In depth look at the problems of these reports as tools for operating a business
- A review of The Flaw of Averages
- A review of The Foibles of Percentages
- And an in depth review of the Dangers in Limited Comparisons
- Why there is a need for Operational as opposed to Financial reports, though they may use the same data.
- How to create these visonary reports to help visualize and understand instantly, in the flow of time what has happened
- And is mostly likely to happen next.
- Many examples
- Lots of working together, in “real-time," like Khan Academy
- Independent exercises and study to help achieve mastery.
- AND MORE

It will require some knowledge of using spreadsheets and goes into detail to help you learn how to create the charts called Process Behavior Charts, and master how to use them. Not for the faint hearted but well worth the effort, you will learn everything you need to know about making effective, actionable reports to help you solve problems permanently. (They go away and never come back)."

You will need a pencil, an eraser, some graph paper preferably, a straight edge, a calculator, a computer and spreadsheet software would be nice, but most of all, your uncomputer… your mind.
Entertaining but enlightening video, plus pdf's for study, supplementary materials, and an hour or two of independent practice to move you from first exposure to mastering the art of making useful operational reports and how to apply them for breakthrough, almost magical results.
