It’s simpler than you’ve been told. But you need a system.
This is the system built for you.
A course on the 20% of Excel that actually matters, taught as one connected system.
This is professional training, and it’s usually paid for the way a conference is: out of a training budget. I make that easy — a syllabus, the hours, a proper invoice, and a request for your manager that I write for you.
How your company pays →Every other course is selling you information. Information is free — YouTube has 10,000 hours of it. What you need is clarity: knowing exactly which tool to reach for, so cold your head stays on the story the data is telling.
That’s what I’m going to teach you.
And I’m good at getting it to land. Twenty years of explaining this to smart people who were never shown it properly — I know where it clicks, and I know where it doesn’t.
Every session is ready when you are. There’s no class to show up for and no cohort to keep up with.
About an hour of me teaching, in short chapters. Then about an hour of you building it yourself, with the coach.
The Boss is the build at the end: a real file for your role, made by you and sent in. The coach reads it and tells you what to fix.
Eight sessions, sixteen hours, 60 days of access. Long enough to finish, short enough that you do.
Talk it through with the coach, any hour. Still stuck? Email me. You can always reach me.
Marketing, HR, Ops, Sales, Finance or Product. Pick yours, and switch any time — nothing locks.
I’ve created a simple system to learn Excel, and it all comes down to just 8 F’s.
All of it on your role’s own files.
Get on the list. The first offer goes to the people on it, and so does the reference letter.
AI can write the formula in ten seconds. It cannot tell you whether the number it produced is right, and it cannot tell your boss what the sheet means. The people who actually understand Excel are the ones AI makes more valuable, not less.
So I teach it. Easy, practical ways to use AI for real spreadsheet work you could do tomorrow. And the part that matters more: how to know, fast, whether what it handed you is even right.
I cloned my own voice and handed it the entire curriculum, every practice file, and 20 years of my finance opinions. Talk through anything and hear how I’d actually explain it.
I’ve spent twenty years finding the ways this stuff actually lands for people who never got it. The coach has every one of them, at 11pm, as many times as you need. Nobody is judging you. Nobody is bored of the question.
The raise you stopped waiting for someone to offer you.
The summary your boss forwards without edits.
The chart where the answer lands before anyone asks a question.
The report you rebuild every week, built once.
The Excel Lab is the tool. Numbers at Work is the game the tool is played in. The Stack is both.
How money actually moves through a business — and what the numbers are telling you. Get that, and you’re the valuable one in the room. That’s who gets paid more.
See the Numbers at Work Lab →Everyone else gives you a certificate. I read your actual work.
I taught business at a college — youngest they ever hired — and I’ve spent twenty years in finance since. I’m not telling you that to impress you. I’m telling you because you’re about to pick someone to learn this from, and you should know who’s actually on the other end.
And yes I’m grading your actual work and signing your personal reference letter if you truly learn what I teach you.
It comes out of a training budget, like a conference does. I’ll invoice your company directly, or you expense it with a proper invoice. I’ll even write the request for your manager. How it works →
Payment plans at checkout. Same price, spread out.
Watch the first three chapters of Fundamentals — about 45 minutes — then I ask you point-blank. Out — full refund, every dollar. In — we finish what we started, and refunds are off the table.
If you can open a file and type in a cell, you’re ready. Fundamentals starts at the actual beginning — the basics most people skip — and builds from there.
Using it daily and having learned it properly are different things — most people run on a handful of self-taught habits. If you already build summaries your boss forwards without edits, you don’t need this.
No, on purpose. That’s the complexity everyone else sells. This is the 20% that actually moves your work — learned cold.
The Excel Lab is the tool. Numbers at Work is the game the tool is played in — the numbers themselves. The Stack is both.
Recorded. Every session is ready when you are, so you go at your own pace. The coach is there any hour, and you can email me any time.
Sixteen hours in all. Each session is about an hour of me teaching and an hour of you building. Spread over the 60 days, that’s about two hours a week.
Pick the closest one. Nothing locks, so you can work another role’s files any time. The 8 F’s are the same in every job.
The whole Numbers at Work Lab, Cash Money, the “Accounting for Cool People” cheatsheet, and the Final Boss — the one I read myself, with the reference letter if you earn it.
Usually, yes. It comes out of a training budget, like a conference does. I’ll invoice your company directly, or you expense it with a proper invoice — and I’ll write the request for your manager. Here’s how it works.
The doors aren’t open yet. The first offer goes to the people on this list, and so does the reference letter: my read of your final work, with my signature on it.
Capacity is real, and it goes to whoever was here first.
When the doors open, your invite comes with the request for your manager, already written.
