A practical guide on how to use Excel Tables during consulting projects.What is the aim of this course?During the first 2 years, you will be heavily using Excel to do analyses for the customers. On average, you will spend 4-6 hours a day working in Excel. In many situations, you can speed up your work and make your analyses more dynamic, by using the so-called Excel Tables. In this course, I will teach you how to use Excel Tables during consulting projects.In the course you will learn the following things:How do Excel Tables differ from regular calculations in Excel?How to create and use Excel Tables.How to create dynamic drop-down lists and dynamic charts using Excel Tables,How to link Excel Tables in the Data Model and use Power Pivot.This course is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried out or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated a total of 2 billion in additional EBITDA. On the basis of what you will find in this course, I have trained in person over 100 consultants, business analysts, and managers who now are Partners in PE and VC funds, Investment Directors and Business Analysts in PE and VC, Operational Directors, COO, CRO, CEO, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members, etc. On top of that my courses on Udemy were already taken by more than 224 000 students including people working in EY, McKinsey, Walmart, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adidas, Naspers, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange, and many others.I teach through case studies, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, and tools that we use. To every lecture, you will find attached (in additional resources) the Excels as well as additional presentations, and materials shown in the lectures so as a part of this course you will also get a library of ready-made analyses that can, with certain modifications, be applied by you or your team in your work.Why have I decided to create this course?Excel Tables are not widely understood by most Management Consultants. They not only help you do dynamic tools like dynamic drop-down lists, project charters, and Gantt charts but are also necessary components of Power Pivots (Pivot Tables using data from different sources). Once you master Excel Tables you will be able to understand much faster tools like Power Query, Power Pivots, and Power BI. Therefore, I have decided to create this course that will help students understand or refresh their knowledge of Excel Tables. The course will give you the knowledge and insight into real-life case studies that will make your life during a consulting project much easier. Thanks to this course, you will know how and when to use Excel Tables during consulting projects.To sum it up, I believe that if you want to become a world-class Management Consultant or Business Analyst you have to have a pretty decent understanding of Excel Tables. That is why, I highly recommend this course to Management Consultants or Business Analysts, especially those who spend a lot of time analyzing data in Excel. The course will help you become an expert in Excel Tables on the level of McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and other top consulting firms.In what way will you benefit from this course?The course is a practical, step-by-step guide loaded with tons of analyses, tricks, and hints that will significantly improve the speed with which you understand, and analyze businesses. There is little theory - mainly examples, a lot of tips from my own experience as well as other notable examples worth mentioning.
