Course Description

While it is impossible to define one single perfect set of KPIs applicable to all companies, having a set of Key Performance Indicators is important to reflect either internal business focus or to address external concerns. Regardless of the size and complexity of your business operations, these indicators are the most useful tools to monitor activities and make business decisions. Join us as we review the most useful KPIs for CFOs, and uncover effective strategies for pursuing growth and improving efficiency.

This course will show how you can get more value from financial forecasts by comparing them to your accounting data, and how you can derive more strategic intelligence from your numbers by doing so.
