Finance for Non-Financial Managers: Accounting, Analysis and Budgeting

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

In many organizations, operational managers are now accountable for the financial results of their divisions, so they need to be comfortable with a wide range of financial reports. This 90-minute finance for non-financial managers webinar helps you use the information your accounting team provides to make sound management decisions.

You'll cover the main aspects of accounting and financial management, including the principles behind financial statements, cash flow and income management, and budget formation. The session shows how financial information is analyzed and why it is central to management decisions, how to work effectively with a company's financial statements, and how to read what they say about your division's underlying performance.

It also gives you practical skills for writing and managing budgets.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
