Companies get into trouble in the good times. However, that doesn't mean that they fail during good economic times. Rather, they make decisions that cause them financial stress when a recession hits. This course gives you financial management ideas for what to do before and during a recession.

The course begins by explaining who determines when a recession has occurred in the United States and the criteria they use to make that determination. I'll then list some challenges businesses face during a recession. Specifically, I'll show how companies get trapped with high costs and cash outflows during a recession.

In the last half of the course, we’ll look at many financial management ideas you can implement before and during a recession to improve your company's ability to survive and thrive. Finally, we'll look at some opportunities businesses have during recessions to improve profitability when good economic times return.

For much of my career, I was part of the senior leadership at banks and a large credit union. I've sat through many special asset meetings, which is the euphemism banks use for meetings about bad loans and repossessed assets. The collections department reported to me at one financial institution. I've seen many of the financial mistakes companies make. It truly saddened me. My hope is that this course gives you ideas to help businesses make fewer and less costly mistakes.

Financial Management in a Recession (2 Hrs)

After decades of low inflation, prices spiked in the 2020s. Inflation was back, but a generation of managers had little experience with it. That lack of experience caused companies to make mistakes when inflation started its fast ascent. Financial leaders need to relearn the skills and insights that guided companies through the high inflation of the 1970s and 1980s.

This course is broken into two sections. The first section will cover some key concepts about inflation. You'll learn:

  • What is inflation?
  • The Federal Reserve's role in managing inflation
  • The indexes used to measure inflation
  • How to calculate inflation
  • A historical look at inflation and its causes
  • The advantages and disadvantages of inflation
  • Consumer reactions to inflation

The second section builds on these concepts to provide implications for company financial management. I'll explain:

  • How to prepare for inflation
  • The importance of cash management
  • Ways to earn more income and protect your cash during inflation
  • Pricing tactics and strategies
  • Inflation implications for capital expenditures
  • Tips and ideas for many aspects of company financial management

Description :

One of the most common criticisms of non-finance managers, executives, and directors is that they have difficulty understanding financial performance of their own organization. Often variance analysis is overwhelming, confusing, lacking in precision, begging more questions than it answers with superficial explanations. In this course, you will take a deep dive into how you can do variance analysis better. In the process, you will add significant value to management decision making.

Using an audience centric view, you will learn best practices using examples and case studies to improve traditional variance analysis using numbers and descriptive explanations. You will also learn to make variance analysis more visual through charts, graphs and images. Finally, you will explore different structures that help facilitate a conversation about organizational performance. This impactful course is relevant to any financial professional involved in the preparation, reporting, review, or presentation of variance analysis. Honing this skill elevates your own executive presence and the level of influence and persuasiveness inside your organization.
