Leading Audit Readiness Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers lease accounting and management accounting from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because boards increasingly expect finance to explain the business, not only report on it, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with budgeting and variance analysis, working capital management and audit readiness in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put budgeting and variance analysis on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the Companies Act
- Review working capital management and say plainly whether it is working
- Make a decision about audit readiness without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of capital budgeting rather than escalating it
