Why Outlook?

Where the finance and consulting
working day actually starts.

Outlook is where the day starts and ends for most finance and consulting teams. Email, calendar, contacts and tasks all live here. This subject takes a complete beginner from managing the inbox properly through to running calendar, contacts and tasks for productive days.
