Discovering the Power of Excel
In the early 90s, I started working more with spreadsheets. At first, it felt overwhelming — endless cells and formulas that looked more like code than admin work.
But once I learned the basics, I realised Excel wasn’t just about numbers. It was about saving time, making sense of information, and spotting trends at a glance that you’d never notice in a paper ledger.
That was my lightbulb moment, realising that digital tools could transform everyday tasks into something smarter and more efficient.
