Case in 60 seconds

A quick scan of the case: what was happening, what needed to be solved, what I did, and what value is demonstrated.

Situation

S

Sales teams need to understand which periods, departments, or sales reps explain performance in order to prioritise follow-up, targets, and improvement actions.

Task

T

Individual dashboard where I analysed sales by periods, departments, and sales reps using Power BI/Excel and performance KPIs to support executive reading and commercial monitoring.

Action

A
  1. 01Structure relevant commercial fields.
  2. 02Define core KPIs.
  3. 03Create cuts by period, department, and sales rep.
  4. 04Design clear visualisations for comparison.

Result

R
  • The dashboard makes it possible to identify performance differences between periods and commercial units.
  • Sales-rep-level reading helps detect deviations and follow-up opportunities.
  • Useful for sales reporting, junior BI, and target monitoring.
  • Strengthens the ability to turn operational data into executive information.
