Steps:

1. Select "Transform" ribbon item
2. Select the column in which you have your future headers (for you it will be "name")

3. Press "Pivot column" button

4. In the settings, select the column in which you have the values (for you it will be "value")

5. In the advanced settings, select "Do not agregate" option

6. You're done!
