EFFECTIVE REPORTING

Communicating Business Performance

 

Learn how to deliver your message effectively so that your audience actually reads, understands and uses your report to aid in the decision and evaluation process.

 

Too often financial reports become a speed bump within the reporting cycle as they are written without the end user in mind – and that’s whom they are for! Learn how to simplify and structure your reporting for relevance and key message communication.

 

In this course participants are taught the essentials of effective report writing and presentation techniques to equip you with all the skills for a relevant, concise and valuable financial report.

    I am a medium sized business owner who always seems to be working long hours but not showing any money in the bank. David provided a clear picture of how to price my services profitably, improve cash flow and ensure that my business is ready to expand. Thanks, so much David you are fantastic at what you do.
