SHARE POST

Business and spreadsheets are as intertwined as fish and the ocean. Proficiency in spreadsheet software is essential for professionals across various industries. Excel, a powerful tool from Microsoft, is widely used for data analysis, financial modeling, and task management. 

However, many individuals continually struggle with Excel’s complex functions and formulas, limiting their productivity and efficiency. To address this issue and empower professionals with Excel skills, BetterPros is proud to present an exclusive workshop titled “Overcome Excel: Mastering the Basics for Enhanced Productivity”, led by our COO, Dyna Efraimsky. 

Only, we told you a little white lie, and this workshop is actually about Google’s analog product to Excel, Google Sheets!

Unleashing the Power of Google Sheets

The workshop’s primary focus was to demystify spreadsheets and unlock the full potential of Google Sheets—a cloud-based spreadsheet software. Google Sheets offers a user-friendly interface with collaborative features, making it an ideal choice for businesses and remote teams. 

The “Overcome Excel” workshop aimed to help our talents and internal team face their fears and reservations about complex spreadsheets, providing them with the foundational knowledge to confidently navigate Google Sheets.

Objectives of the Workshop

The workshop had three key objectives:

Meet the Dy-namo

Our very own Dyna Efraimsky, a powerhouse of innovative ideas, led the workshop. Hailing from Uruguay, Dy is a communication specialist with experience in the corporate world. With over 15 years of expertise, Dyna currently serves as the COO of BetterPros and manages the operations team. She has a unique knack for transforming problems into streamlined processes and has been a driving force behind the success of numerous projects.

Dy’s Spreadsheet Terror

Interestingly, DY herself was once an “enemy” of Excel. Like many others, she found the complexities of Excel formulas and cells daunting. However, her perspective shifted when she discovered the power of pivot tables in generating useful insights and streamlining processes. With this revelation, Dy turned Excel into an ally, leveraging its capabilities to optimize workflows and drive efficient project execution.

Dyna’s enthusiasm for communication and teaching makes her the perfect guide for workshop attendees. Her expertise in Google Sheets and Excel, combined with her excellent communication skills, ensures participants will have an engaging and informative learning experience.
