Being able to render the complexity of operations data into a coherent account of significant events requires an understanding of how to work well in the electronic environment with raw data. Although some statistical and financial techniques for analyzing data are sophisticated and require specialized expertise, there are methods that are understandable by and applicable to anyone with basic algebra skills and the support of a spreadsheet package. While specialized software packages may be used in a particular business setting, Microsoft Excel is routinely available on computer desktops. Managers who have been in the field any length of time may not be sufficiently familiar with the capabilities of Excel to make optimal use of its functionalities. Prior to undertaking a program to pursue executive training, managers who are refreshed with basic algebra skills and the capabilities of Excel will be prepared to develop a richer understanding from their more advanced work. 410 0$a2012 digital library. 410 0$aQuantitative approaches to decision making collection.$x2163-9582 606 $aBusiness mathematics$xComputer programs 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aMicrosoft Excel 610 $arefreshing math skills 610 $abusiness math 610 $astatistical analysis 610 $afinancial analysis 610 $amathematical modeling 615 0$aBusiness mathematics$xComputer programs. 676 $a005.369 700 $aChaffe-Stengel$b Priscilla M$0963019 701 $aStengel$b Donald N$0963020 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462736703321 996 $aWorking with Excel$92183591 997 $aUNINA
