Level 4: Finance and Strategy (Two Day Business Simulation)

Target audience

Finance and Strategy targets managers and executives who are engaged in budgeting, forecasting and analysis.

Focus on strategic thinking

In this two day business simulation, leaders draw on a range of skills to meet more complex sales and marketing challenges such as competitive differentiation, falling prices, and disruptive technology.

Teams decide which customer profiles to target, what product mix to adopt, what prices to set, whether to increase capacity, how much money to borrow, and the R&D options to pursue. They are constantly looking at how to improve prices, cost structure, profit and cash flow. Learners gain practical experience in the use of a range of financial planning and analysis tools including cash flow forecasting, budgeting, and ratio analysis.

Leaders are challenged and engaged throughout the simulation because Income/Outcome business simulations use a complete mix of learning methodologies: tactile, kinesthetic, visual, and auditory.

The structure of the Income/Outcome® simulation board supports a visual understanding of the use, importance, and inter-relationship of key financial ratios. The Income/Outcome Triangle for Ratio Analysis will be of permanent value to all managers.

Your management team comes away better able to:

  • See the strategic position and vision of the company, and build appropriate departmental plans
  • Integrate cash flow planning with planning for sales, costs and profit
  • Partner with customers and suppliers, structure sales and purchases, look for profit opportunities

Programs are presented by our certified facilitators or yours (trainer certification available). This program fits seamlessly with other Income/Outcome® offerings targeting other groups in the organization.
