Cover image for Most people think a spreadsheet
Most people think a spreadsheet and a dashboard are the same thing. They're not. A spreadsheet is where data lives. A dashboard is where decisions happen. The difference: Spreadsheet → raw, editable, flexible, built for input Dashboard → structured, visual, built for reading and decisions The mistake I see most often: People try to do both in the same sheet. The result? Decision makers see too much raw data Numbers get accidentally edited No one knows what to trust The fix is simple: Keep your data layer and your presentation layer separate. Raw data in one sheet. Dashboard in another. One is for building. One is for reading. When you separate them, updates become clean, mistakes become rare, and your reports actually get used. A spreadsheet stores your data. A dashboard tells its story.
