Designing Dashboards in Excel: Comparisons with Bars

In this 83-page guide, I show you how to create a single static dashboard inside of good ol' Excel. Miniature bar charts give a quick snapshot of how subgroups are performing on four variables. This approach is popular because it provides leaders with dozens of data points on just one page—so that leaders no longer have to skim through multi-page reports to find the information they need. 

I walk you through the process in 12 steps, from typing your data into Excel, to designing the bar charts, to formatting your page so that it's ready to be printed or PDF'd. There are screenshots of EVERYTHING, so it's impossible to get lost along the way.
