Training Course Overview

Financial planning is an important part of business management, not only a finance function. Managers need to understand financial results, review budgets, control costs, assess investments, recognize financial risks, and consider profitability when making business decisions.

Financial Planning for Business Managers introduces non-financial and business managers to the financial concepts and planning methods used in day-to-day management. The program covers financial statement interpretation, budgeting, business forecasting, financial risk review, investment assessment, financial indicators, and the connection between financial planning and organizational objectives.

Participants work through business cases, budgeting exercises, scenario analysis, financial planning activities, discussions, and implementation exercises. These activities provide opportunities to apply financial information and planning methods to practical business situations.

At the end of the program, participants develop a Business Financial Planning Blueprint and a 90-Day Financial Performance Action Plan to guide financial decisions and ongoing business performance.
