Workshop Overview:
 
The modern accountant works in an environment of continuous change. Their role has been irrevocably changed by the twin impacts of globalization, which has created a worldwide marketplace with a new level of competitiveness for every business, and improved and cheaper technology, which has made the recording, processing and reporting of financial information less expensive.

The accountant of today is an active member of the management team of the business, not merely a score-keeper. A broad scope of training, experience and skill is required for the modern accountant to succeed.

Accounting is an information system. Today's effective accountant communicates a story about what has happened in a business to the users of financial information, so that these users may make decisions on the efficient allocation of resources. The users may be the internal management of the business or others outside the business who has a need to understand developments within it.
 
The skill with which the accountant tells the story will determine the quality of decisions made by those both within and without the business, and, ultimately, its success or failure.

In this workshop, you will learn:

- Where the information to tell the story comes from

- How this information is assembled into a meaningful story

- How to use analytical tools to enhance the story

- How the information you provide can lead to effective resource allocation

- How financial information may be used for predictive purposes

- How recent change has affected information flow and decision making tools.
