Could any of your team benefit from some clear demystification of business jargon & numbers to help them add more value?

People who understand the language of business finance:

Boost cash flow with better working capital management & boost profit knowing the importance of gross margin to profitability
Have better communication with finance team and so are more able to explain and get new initiatives approved
Feel more confident contributing and asking questions at meetings which helps governance and reduces chance of fraud - i.e. they wont get fobbed off

In corporate teams good communication is vital - and a better understanding of the numbers and jargon will help this hugely.

But often there are huge issues of “loss of face” to get people to attend a finance course - somehow people are expected to pick this up through the ether - a bit like learning greek with no phrase book!

HERE IS HOW THE NUMBERS COACH™ CAN HELP:

The training is delivered either through live workshops or online Zoom meetings, or 1:2:1 coaching. These are supported with workbooks and online training.

The training is based on a 3 stage learning process that is customised to your business:

Understanding the numbers
Forecasting and budgeting
Managing for growth

Please get in touch to discuss to see how the Numbers Coach™ can help. Half day workshops start at £525 plus resources.
