Leading Financial Reporting Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers cost allocation and financial statement preparation 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 revenue recognition, financial modelling and deferred tax in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put revenue recognition on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against GRAP for public entities
- Bring financial modelling into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of deferred tax rather than escalating it
- Spot where cash flow forecasting is failing before it becomes a finding
