Practical management skills
Understanding business finance
Finance for non-financial managers

Many top managers do not have formal training in finance but if you want to get to the top it is essential to understand how the finances of your company works. The same is true for anyone running their own business. If you do not understand the language of financial reports, bankers and accountants you can miss opportunites or fall into serious financial risks.

This intensive three-day workshop will not make you an expert but it will open the doors to understanding. From the balance sheet to the newspaper financial pages the meaning need no longer be a closed book.

Making winning presentations

A well-delivered, effective presentation can win you a sale, finance for a project or board approval. Yet the majority of PowerPoint presentations are long, complicated and boring or just plain confused. Even good presentations can be ruined by poor delivery and lack of preparation.

This one-day workshop will unlock the key skills you need to prepare and deliver excellent, winning presentations.

Creating a professional website

Your presence on the Web is an essential marketing requirement these days. The quality and ease of use of your site says everything about your business to potential customers and competitors. Registering sites effectively with search engines can have a dramatic effect on your hit rate. With thought and a touch of flair, all of this can be done for suprisingly little investment.

This hands on two-day workshop will show you how to design, write and launch a professional looking site to stand out from the competition and to maximise the marketing benefit when you are on a tight budget.

Marketing yourself to employers

Anyone in the recruitment and selection business knows that many CVs are rejected simply through poor presentation and an ill-thought out covering letter. Equally, interviews are minefields for the unprepared and it is all too easy to miss the opportunity to transmit your real qualities and skills.

This one day workshop will give you key techniques and golden rules for attracting the interest of recruiters and employers and getting across just how good you really are.
