The most important skill needed to develop a great spreadsheet report is not numbers wizardry, nor accounting and finance experience, nor technical Excel expertise – it’s the ability to tell a story.   In that sense, it’s similar to the skills that lead to effective writing and eloquent speaking. 

This webinar takes a unique perspective toward the development of reports that are delivering quantitative information, by emphasizing the same approach to spreadsheets that one would use to draft and edit an important memo or position paper.

During this webinar you'll learn the skills usually associated with effective writing and speaking, as well as designing reports that contain relevant and important information. You'll also learn how to use ratios, key indicators, and other metrics, as well as how to use artwork and text effects to make your information visually stimulating.
