Why this workshop?

In today's economic environment when costs are rising and demand is falling, there is a greater necessity for improved communication between financial and non-financial professionals. Non-finance managers need to learn the language of finance and vice versa. This will lead to a better coordinated and team approach to meet business goals and objectives.

Operating managers require a degree of financial competence, so that they are financially alert and understand the business implications of decisions taken by them and how this ultimately affects value of the organization. This understanding in turn will help them deliver better results in their respective functional areas.
