I just started a new role where Power BI is part of the workflow, but I honestly have 0 practical experience with it.

I come from a finance background, so I understand some data analysis concepts in theory, but I’ve never actually built dashboards or worked hands-on with Power BI.

Right now I’m trying to catch up as fast as possible and focus on what actually matters in real use (not just theory or random tutorials).

If you’ve been in a similar situation, what would you recommend?

I’m mainly looking for a simple, practical way to learn quickly:

• what to focus on first
• what’s not worth spending time on early
• how to get comfortable building real reports/dashboards

Any advice or learning path that actually worked in practice would be appreciated.
