This three-hour lesson will demonstrate and teach you how to create beautiful HR or rewards dashboards that stand out from the herd, tell a powerful story and can be updated with only two clicks. (Not to mention, impress the boss!)

Dianne will show you the wonders of Power Pivot:

  • Cover important dashboard design principles.
  • Provide a brief introduction to Power Query and Power Pivot and Macros.
  • Demonstrate how to create an interactive gender equity analysis dashboard using Power Query, Power Pivot, icons, text boxes, elegant uncluttered colour coded charts, customised slicers to drill down by level, department or location, Power Pivot median measures and three simple macro buttons that allow alternate pay base views of the data.
  • Dianne will give you a marvelous starting template along with instructions for replication of everything she will be demonstrating, and the finished dashboard to polish it all off.
  • The gender equity analysis dashboard is used for illustration, but the techniques demonstrated can be used for any type of HR or rewards dashboards.
  • Power Pivot and Power Query are standard from Excel 2016 onwards, and they can be added into Excel 2013. But the dashboard design principles taught can be used with any version of Excel, and can be used with standard employee data and pivot tables.
  • Power Query and Power Pivot are simply super-efficient tools for transforming data and merging different tables for use in analysis.
