When it comes to finance, do you feel frustrated and overwhelmed?

 

You're not alone. Non-finance managers often feel completely untrained for the financial responsibility that their job entails and that their lack of core financial knowledge is holding them back. This course is for you if:

➡️  You struggle to make sense of your P&L and business numbers
➡️  You have a hard time making sound financial decisions
➡️  You lack the confidence to have financial conversations & feel threatened by financial jargon

How's it Different?

Most finance training doesn't work because:

❌  It's lecture-based and jam packed with jargon.
❌  It's focused on rote-learning, so you never learn the why.
❌  It's overwhelming, with too many irrelevant concepts.
❌  It's delivered by finance heads who can't relate to people who have a fear of finance.

Our finance training works because:

✅ It's delivered by an accountant with a personality
✅ It's interactive
✅ It's gamified
✅ It's experiential
✅ It's practical
✅ It's fun
