Overview:

This is a practical, hands-on transformation session focused on replacing manual spreadsheet tasks with high-efficiency AI tools. Participants will move beyond theoretical overviews to see exactly how Gen AI can replicate and enhance core Excel functions like SUM, VLOOKUP, and pivot tables.

The course covers the transition from "Excel Thinking" to "AI Thinking," demonstrating how to upload datasets to AI tools to identify trends, find anomalies, and segment data without a single formula. You will learn to generate weekly reports, monthly performance summaries, and sales analyses that are presentation-ready. Finally, the session explores automation-creating reusable prompt templates and batch processing data to turn repetitive reporting into a streamlined, automated workflow.

Why you should Attend:
Many professionals operate under the "Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt" (FUD) of making a manual formula error that could compromise an entire report or wasting hours on repetitive data cleaning that could be automated in seconds.

This 90-minute intensive session is designed to transform your relationship with data. You will learn how to replace traditional Excel workflows with AI-driven processes that can reduce your data work time by an estimated 50-80%. By moving from "Formula Writing" to "Prompt Engineering," you can eliminate the frustration of VLOOKUPs and manual categorization, turning Gen AI into your personal data assistant that generates executive summaries and insights instantly.
