Budgeting and Forecasting for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers working capital management and lease accounting from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because audit findings are now a reputational matter as much as a technical one, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with financial modelling, audit readiness and cash flow forecasting in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where financial modelling is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against GRAP for public entities
- Put audit readiness on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about cash flow forecasting without waiting for a specialist
- Bring financial statement preparation into line with current good practice
