The goal of this course is to provide participants with a working knowledge of project complexities and a framework for managing the ambiguities involved in today's fast-changing, competitive, and technology-based environment As knowledge and technology expand exponentially, organizations are finding that the tools, processes, and methods used to select, plan, and manage their projects are insufficient for the challenges posed by them. Complex projects don't necessarily follow the rules of traditional projects - in many instances the projects' end-products, and the methods by which they will be produced, are not easily defined. Stakeholder diversity and geographical dispersion contribute to the difficulties project managers face in their efforts to gain acceptance of project goals, objectives, and changes. Additionally, hierarchic leadership styles, traditional lifecycle approaches, and traditional project manager competencies may no longer maximize the efficiencies that need to be realized on complex projects.

Making money is the very reason your business exists – but often, entrepreneurs don’t pay enough attention to the financials that drive the bottom line. Whether due to deep-seated money anxiety, lack of skills or knowledge, or an aversion to long-term planning, business owners often use random guesswork to build the sales and expense projections that should be the foundation of their financial plan. Sound financial planning documents can not only win over investors; they’re valuable tools for monitoring the company’s progress toward profitability. In this learning stream, we’ll examine and counteract common misperceptions about financial planning, learn about different models for revenue and cost projections, and discuss concepts such as the maximum negative cash flow that potential investors will scrutinize. Key expense and revenue models and financial statements will be reviewed one-by-one, with accompanying worksheets and formulas to help you build your own realistic, credible models. A workshop session will focus on finding the happy medium between wildly optimistic projections and overly-conservative, ho-hum estimates, so you can present financial statements that are believable, justifiable, and inspire confidence.
