Long time lurker here and wanted to get the community’s thought on good business modelling class (I.e not the mechanics of excel, but ideally modelling classes taught by former consultants).

I’ve found these two resources quite helpful (both of which on udemy)

1. Intermediate Excel by Kieran Luke
2. Beyond Formulas

Would you recommend any resources to get better at modelling?

I’ve tried breaking into Wall Street, but it’s too focussed on financial modelling, less so business modelling.

I was a Manager at a Big4 doing PM fed work earlier this year. I decided to join a small firm to pursue cloud sales. However, the position is extremely technical in nature and I'm required to speak tech ( kubernetes, openshift, CICD) to potential clients.
