This post is part of Excel Dashboard Week
Early in Jan, I got this mail from Mara, a student in Excel School first batch.
Hi Chandoo,
I took your first Excel batch class and loved it. I created a dynamic and interactive dashboard for my work. My boss thinks it’s an excellent tool and I have you to thank for and also Francis Chin who shared his travel dynamic dashboard. I integrated things you taught so thanks so much!
I felt very proud reading her email, so I asked her if she can share the dashboard with some dummy data so that we all can learn from her example.
Being a lovely person Mara is, she gladly emailed me the workbook and I am thrilled to include it in Dashboard Week.

Techniques used by Mara to Create this Dashboard:
Mara used several techniques to create this dashboard. But I specifically liked 5 things about this dashboard. They are,
- Tweetboard kind of area at the top where she showed summary of status. [Related tip]
- Dynamic dashboard which can be filtered based on a month.
- Interactive chart with check boxes to show / hide information. [Related tip]
- Interactive comparison chart to compare target with actual performances (of valet wait times). [Related tip]
- Scrollable list of various gift shop items. [Related tip]
