Ever get passed up for a promotion or pay increase and wonder, “why didn’t I get it”? Ever wonder if your skills are good enough to compete in today’s crowded job market? You work hard, go above and beyond and still can’t seem to get noticed. Many of today’s jobs require that you be familiar with Microsoft Excel. How can you become proficient at Excel when companies aren’t willing to teach you this valuable skill?
This leaves many people trying to learn as they go and never quite feeling 100% comfortable with the program. What’s worse, most people haven’t even scratched the surface of Excel’s potential, even if they’ve been using it for years. If you feel this way, you’re not alone.
Think about this for a second; what will your career look like in a year if you don’t take action today and improve your Excel skills? How about five years from now? Unless you take matters into your own hands things may not look much different.
According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, people who show proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other common office applications earn, on average, 13% more than those who don’t. For most people this could mean tens of thousands of dollars over just a few years, and this doesn’t even factor in lost promotions and job offers. Can you afford to leave so much on the table as a result of maintaining the status quo?
I’ve experienced this transformation in my career and can tell you first hand how it has helped me. When I was fresh out of college and working my first accounting job my manager asked me to complete a project that involved using VLOOKUPS. I enthusiastically obliged, walked back to my desk, and proceeded to panic. I tricked myself into thinking that I was an excel expert only because I knew a few formulas, my limited knowledge only scratched the surface. I turned to a college buddy for help; Google. I eventually managed to learn what I needed, after a lot of time and energy.
I’ve climbed the ladder and worn many hats since then. I can’t say that the opportunities I’ve earned in my career are solely due to my increasing Excel proficiency. What I can definitely say is that Excel has earned me more opportunities to prove myself to management than waiting for opportunities to materialize on their own.
That’s why I decided to write this book. My goal is to take you from Excel novice to master in the shortest time possible. I wrote my book specifically for the busy professional, in an easy to read manner that gets straight to the point and teaches the meat of Excel. I wrote this book for you.

You’re at the point of decision. You can either continue down the path of least resistance, the path you have already been traveling, or you can choose the road less traveled. The path of least resistance will probably result in you getting the same outcomes you’ve always received.
But if you want something different to happen, if you want to change the direction of your career you’re going to have to do something different. Make a choice now, pursue new outcomes.

Spot on!
If you have a reasonable knowledge of excel but want to learn some cool new stuff to give you the edge then this book is perfect.
It’s written in a really engaging way and was pitched just at the right level for me. The chapters aren’t too long and cover a wide range of topics. Some stuff I already knew but lots I didn’t. Really good explanations of things like Vlookup all written in a common sense way. Great resource to refer back to as and when I need it.
This book wouldn’t suit a total beginner but if you read the synopsis before purchasing then you should realise that!
Best of all I download this book for free. Thank you for this really great resource!

To much smugness and not enough clear guidance!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 September 2017Verified Purchase
This book is not bad but I found the authors approach rather self centred and even smug at times. A lot of the book is spent with the approach, "look at how clever I am, I learned this, this and that!" Very off putting to the extent that I bought Excel 2016 for Dummies instead and was not subjected to the almost narcissistic approach to the subject. All I wanted was how to do things, not a book containing 60% of self grandiosity!

I liked the illustrations, but to view of them. Definitely not a reference book.I prefer sharp explanations with go to guides ie open x>rapt etc.therefore it becomes labouring
