5 tips to create the best Excel dashboard:

1. Create emphasis: Add a strong contrast to headings to show at a glance the KPIs on display in your Excel dashboard.

2. Connect different elements: Show relationships with alignment.

3. Draw parallels and create associations: Two things that should be repeated consistently in your dashboard are abbreviations and color usage.

4. Organise content and create focal points: Think about proximity. What will you choose to group or separate?

5. Balance large elements with smaller elements
