"Now I Get It!" Financial Fluency for Next Generation Leaders
Too often, next generation successors and rising leaders are completely left out of and/or are overwhelmed by business finance conversations. In this program, new and emerging leaders become empowered to understand their company's financial data, giving them the confidence to engage in the conversation and make better business decisions.
Participants learn to accurately read and interpret their financial statements, so they can ask relevant questions regarding that information and forecast easy or challenging financial times. Leaders will see the important connection between company activities, responsibilities, and financial results.
Financial Fluency kicks off October 8, 2024
