Brief Introduction

Step by step introduction to finance & accounting concepts for non finance executives & entrepreneurs

Description

Are only the CEO & CFO responsible for making profits in a company? The answer would be ‘No’. Each and every decision taken in a company has either direct or indirect impact on the profits or financial position of the company. Irrespective of what role you are in, it is imperative that you are aware of certain basic financial knowledge. A certain minimum financial knowledge increases the probability of maximizing the profits or minimizing the losses while taking decisions.

> Financial knowledge is the second most important skill for a CEO according to a recent survey

> Resumes which highlight contributions to top-line & bottom-line of the company have a higher chance of being shortlisted.
