Intensive seminar on executive and general management level covering the most important aspects and trends in financial steering and financial management.

Concept

Every manager with result responsibility affects financial parameters with his decisions and, besides strategic and market success, is also judged on financial results.

Shareholders, owners, bankers and analysts expect increasing profits, cash-flow and free cash-flow, return on equity and, in the case of listed companies, rising stock prizes and dividends. This pressure on management demands that every executive master the tools of financial management.
