Using Microsoft Excel In The Workplace

Microsoft Excel is an indispensable tool for any business. We all use it, either to create Reports for our boss or to track our daily business activities.

Most Employees however struggle to use Excel.

Excel is ideal for Storing, Analyzing & Presenting Business Data. Below I'll explain each of these in more detail:

1) Storing Data:
Microsoft Excel is the No. 1 Business Tool for storing Company Information - from Textual data like Employee Records, to Numerical Data like Sales Numbers; spreadsheets like Excel provide an affordable "Notepad" to store data.

Employees can take advantage of "Excel's Data Form Functionality" to ease the process of entering data into Excel.
Data Forms provide a user friendly way of entering data into a spreadsheet without having to scroll through cells.

2)Analyzing Data:

Microsoft Excel has inbuilt formulas that enable employees better analyze & retrieve data.

For Instance, Monthly Sales Records can be analyzed to obtain: Top Selling Products, Top Customers, Top Salespersons, Top Selling Month. Basically enabling you draw insight from numbers.
Excel Pivot Tables enable employees summarize & analyze large Data Sets with simple button clicks.
Textual Data functionalities can be added to assist with data retrieval. The employee can easily & quickly (both useful in determining efficiency) extract any business data -

a) Customer's Contact Information
b) Patient's Medical Record Number
c) Product's Rack/bin Storage Location, etc.

This not only saves you time, it increases your efficiency making you more productive.

3) Presenting Data:
In addition to analytics, Microsoft Excel supports the creation of Charts, Graphs and other illustrations.

As the Idiom says "a Picture is worth a thousand words". Charts easily depict trends and make "sense" of numbers.

Humans are generally able to infer meaning from these quicker than from figures.
Presenting information into Graphs allows employees visualize the info, helping them understand it better.

For instance: plotting Monthly Turnover figures or Product Sales Numbers allow companies compare progress over time, easily spotting upwards & downward trends

Graphics also give life to Reports & Presentations. All Employees at some point have to create reports, either to present to their team, or to submit to their superiors. Either way Microsoft Excel steps in as the tool for the job.

- Using Percentages to present Sales Target achieved;

- Using SUM & other aggregate functions to calculate Total Income generated, Sales Income per category;

- Using Bar & Column Charts when presenting budgets, Actuals vs Proposed Spending;

Excel is an immensely Complex Business Tool that has many more functionalities than listed above. However it's flexible nature enables Users mould it to suit their specific business needs.

THE HACKER'S WAY

As part of building a strong institute/company, we work hard at making Liberty Group of Computer Training Institutes and Publish Press the best place for great people to have a big impact on the world and learn from other great people. We have cultivated a unique culture and management approach that we call the Hacker's Way.
The word “hacker” has an unfairly negative connotation from being portrayed in the media as people who break into computers. In reality, hacking just means building something quickly or testing the boundaries of what can be done. Like most things, it can be used for good or bad, but the vast majority of hackers we’ve met tend to be idealistic people who want to have a positive impact on the world.
The Hacker Way is an approach to building that involves continuous improvement and iteration. Hackers believe that something can always be better, and that nothing is ever complete. They just have to go fix it — often in the face of people who say it’s impossible or are content with the status quo.
Hackers try to build the best services over the long term by quickly releasing and learning from smaller iterations rather than trying to get everything right all at once. We have the words “Done is better than perfect” painted on our walls to remind ourselves to always keep shipping.
Hacking is also an inherently hands-on and active discipline. Instead of debating for days whether a new idea is possible or what the best way to build something is, hackers would rather just prototype something and see what works.

Thanks for your time!
