I was able to bring formulas and models directly from the program to shine a light on problems my client was having (and talk them out of a less-than-advisable investment).

Program Details

The Creating Strategic Business Value Program guides participants to understand financial statements and make data-driven decisions while giving them new tools to connect their day-to-day work with the big picture of the business. The program design leverages Abilitie’s award-winning simulations and rich Socratic debriefs.

The program had a strong impact. Instead of remembering financial terms, I had the chance to make mistakes and learn from them.
