Every company recognises the limitations of the annual budget. The process ties up scarce resources that could be better deployed generating profits. The final product is out of date by the time it is published and locks the business in to delivering yesterday's plan.

As many companies are discovering, there is a better way to budget, allocate resources and monitor performance to meet the tempo of today's business environment.

This practical workshop provides you with insights into the tools and techniques that turn budgeting and planning into a dynamic and resonsive means of managing performance.

Who should attend?
Finance directors, budgeting and planning managers, and all those responsible for developing balanced scorecards and other performance management systems.
