Understanding Finance for Non-Finance Directors

The essential numbers every director must know — and how to use them to drive smarter decisions

Running a company means more than checking your sales figures. As a director, you’re legally and strategically responsible for understanding your numbers — and using them to guide decisions about profit, cash flow, and growth.

This practical, jargon-free course is designed to give you the confidence to take control of your business finances, even if you’re not “a numbers person.” You’ll learn how to read your profit & loss, balance sheet, and cash flow, and discover what those figures really mean for your business.

You’ll leave knowing:

• The difference between turnover, gross profit and net profit
• How to check the health of your company from a balance sheet
• Why cash flow is critical — and how to forecast it simply
• The key metrics directors should track each month

You’ll also complete your own simple cash flow forecast in the session, and take away a checklist of the five numbers every director should review regularly.
