Use a case study to complete a budgeting exercise
Consider historic trends and future assumptions to build a budget
Explore different approaches to budgeting
Discuss potential issues when budgeting
Learn how to review and reforecast

This topic covers:

Understanding the importance of the budgeting process, key drivers and assumptions for your budget
Practical tips for improving the budget process in your business
Building your confidence to make informed financial decisions that steer you towards better outcomes and increased profitability

This session is for business owners with a limited understanding of the budgeting process. This workshop is designed for attendees with an intermediate level of business finance knowledge - if you are a beginner we recommend attending Let's Talk Finance or Understanding Business Financials first.

The facilitator of this topic, DHM Coaching and Consulting helps business owners make better informed decisions by building their understanding and confidence around the financials of their business. Debbie Millard has a reputation for being able to explain accounting concepts in plain language making it easier to understand by those with a non-finance background.
