As a director, whether executive or non-executive, you have responsibilities beyond the norm. Your financial role extends beyond management to financial strategy, corporate governance, group structure and stakeholder expectations. This two-day course covers finance from the point of view of a director whose primary expertise is not financial, yet who is expected to participate in the financial direction and management of a business. This course covers the financial terminology needed to communicate at board level and with key stakeholders.
As well as instilling the key features of company accounts and the corporate budgeting process, it provides valuable insights into the strategic aspects of financial management, enabling participants to hold their own in the boardroom and with senior colleagues.
