Learn Excel 2019 Expert Skills with The Smart Method by Mike Smart

This Excel 2019 book is very different to any other computer book you have ever read. The Smart Method provides an entirely new and better way to master advanced Excel 2019 skills. Here are some of the reasons that you should choose this book:

• It provides a thorough (and easy to understand) coverage of Power Pivot, Power Query, and DAX. Excel 2019 added Power Pivot as a standard Excel feature. Unlike most other books, this book will teach you the relational database and data modeling skills needed to create optimal Power Pivot Star Schema data models incorporating DAX measures. You'll conform to 24 best-practice Power Pivot rules, ensuring excellence in your future real-world data model designs.
• It won't waste your time by teaching basic Excel 2019 skills that you already know.This isn't a beginner's book. If you are an absolute beginner, you need our Excel 2019 Essential Skills book. By assuming that you are already able to use Excel's basic features, far more ground can be covered.
• It teaches to true Expert level. This Expert Skills book teaches Excel to an extremely high level of competence that is very rarely found in the workplace (even amongst top professionals). At Expert level your skills will be greater and broader than almost all other Excel users and you will understand (and be able to effectively use) absolutely every Excel and Power Pivot feature. You'll have a complete mastery of skills that are often even a mystery to Excel power users.
• Learning success is guaranteed. For over fifteen years, Smart Method courses have been used by large corporations, government departments and the armed forces to train their employees. The book is ideal for teaching or self-learning because it has been constantly refined (during hundreds of classroom courses) by observing which skills students find difficult to understand and then developing simpler and better ways of explaining them. This has made the book effective for students of all ages and abilities.
• Smart Method(R) books are #1 best sellers.Every paper printed Smart Method Excel book (and there have been ten of them starting with Excel 2007) has been an Amazon #1 best seller in it's category. This provides you with the confidence that you are using a best-of-breed resource to learn Excel.
• It is the book of choice for teachers.As well as catering for those wishing to learn Excel by self-study, Smart Method books have long been the preferred choice for Excel teachers as they are designed to teach Excel and not as reference books. Books follow best-practice adult teaching methodology with clearly defined objectives for each learning session and an exercise to confirm skills transfer.
• It is written in plain English. Advanced concepts are explained without needless technical jargon. Everything is concisely described in a simple, no-nonsense way.

Mike Smart ABOUT THE AUTHOR -I have over thirty years of sales experience, during which time I have sold contracts worth hundreds of millions of pounds; -I have earned millions of pounds in commissions and bonuses; -I have cold-called and created businesses from the ground up; -I have hired, dismissed, taught, and managed multi-national sales teams; -I have presented to thousands of people; I wouldn't go so far as to claim that I am, or have ever been, the best salesperson on the planet. Yet, I can boast that I've had the opportunity to work with some of the industry's greatest sales executives and professional buyers, and that I've learnt my trade along the way. I could have written a thousand pages, but it would have defeated the book's purpose. Take it up, read it, put it down, and return to it from time to time - if it makes you think about what you do, then it has contributed value to you as a person, and that is sufficient.
