The Monte Carlo Simulations in Excel for Risky Investments
For more than 25 years Dr. Isaac Gottlieb has been teaching Excel workshops for MBA students in a number of universities, including, Columbia, NYU and others in the US and other countries. In addition, he taught courses of Management Science and Statistics for Managers (always) using Excel. Over 100,000 students have attended his workshops and courses over the past 25 years.
He received the Microsoft MVP – Most Valuable Professional – award for the years 2014-6. “A Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) is an award for individuals who have exhibited exceptional technical expertise and a talent for sharing knowledge within their technical community.” (From Microsoft’s site.)
Isaac Gottlieb has taught how to use Excel—and how to apply it effectively to various business disciplines—to thousands corporate professionals from leading multinational companies as well as small private business corporations.
He mails Excel-Tip-Of-The-Month to over 35,000 recipients.
Dr. Gottlieb has earned his PhD and two Masters Degrees from Columbia University Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research.
His two recent books are:
Excel 2022 Pro 100 + PivotTables, Charts & Reports: Explore Excel 2022 with Graphs, Animations, Sparklines, Goal Seek, Histograms, Correlations, Dashboards. Nov 2022.
Management Science using Excel: Harnessing Excel's advanced features for business optimization. Aug 2023.
This workshop is about understanding what is behind the Monte Carlo Simulation. First, you will find out who is using simulations and for what purposes (risk analysis, operations, investments.) The next part is about having fun applying simulations - rolling dice on a spreadsheet. Once you understand how it is done we can go into a couple of projects. One project is when we simulate a four years budget for 200 times (800 years.) The workshop will have other examples of Monte Carlo simulations.
