Hi! I'm Mike Friedmann.
As teaching is my passion, I've taught Excel to some 150 clients, including management consultants, CPAs, attorneys, investment banking analysts, administrative assistants and students.
My clients come from such diverse organizations as IBM, Harvard Business School, Marc Ecko, Credit Suisse, The World Bank, and The Boston Celtics.
From my RBE Excel Workshops I’ve seen, for example, a client use PivotTables to produce an operations report in 20 minutes that previously took three hours. That’s a 9x productivity multiple. And that’s just one person.
I teach up to 25 people at a time, so just imagine what you’d do for your team with just a three hour workshop.
Augmenting your employees’ Excel skills not only pays your organization back in productivity many times over, but it’s gift to their own human capital that will last a career.
