Your Employees are the Custodians of your Company’s Profits ™
THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM
C-Suite executives assume that their non-financial managers and sales teams understand the financial implications of their decisions. You may be surprised to learn that less than 40% of them are financially literate.
Knowing this, is it reasonable to expect your team to make financially sound decisions?
GO TO YOUR SCHOOL PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE!
Do you recall the feeling when you were summoned to your principal's office for bad behavior? Do you experience deja-vu when presenting your performance vs. budget results to upper management?
Does the buck stop with you? Shouldn't everyone in your organization be held financially accountable?
NOBODY WASHES A RENTED CAR
Imagine if everyone on your team would act like an owner? Your employees are an extension of the promise you made to the executive suite, and ultimately to your shareholders. You cannot do it alone.
You need your team to help you deliver what you promised.

When you tested our credit adjudicators, I was surprised at the knowledge gap between our employees’ perception and their actual level of financial literacy. With your help, we have significantly closed the knowledge gap which has made a huge difference in the manner in which our adjudicators assess and communicate with our small business clients.
