The fact that you show the end result and actually create it for us to see is superb. Thank you for this.

Just yesterday, I tried this my way for a Power BI report background, using PowerPoint and today I watched your video, which gave me more ideas to try! Thank you Mynda for always being there with all help we need! 🙂

What an easy way to create stunning visuals, and do it separately from the substantive data work. Thanks!

Every new video of yours that I see on my feed gets me excited, I love learning about excel, and you know everything.

I've watched a great deal of videos for help with excel and yours are by far the best presented. Not a second of precious time wasted! Excellent productions as well as great tips. Thanks for sharing these.

Thanks for this. I really appreciate. I just finished my A-Z Excel Beginner to Advanced course, where I learned a lot about Excel including stuffs like Macros, Excel VBA etc. But I lack the experience. I hope to learn more from you, I believe you have more experience.

Great content, clear explanations and visuals with even the shortcuts outlined. I make most of my dashboards on PowerBI but this is fantastic if your company wants to keep it all on Excel!

Wonderful. If you had made available the actual dashboard, we could have gone through the actual colours. Anyway, appreciated the way you had explained.

If you want to know where to align the shapes to, just take a screen shot of the excel page and paste it into the ppt before positioning the shapes, then delete it.
