Summary:
Buying and selling a business can be a very risky step to undertake, with over half of all transactions failing. Carrying out proper due diligence is the most effective way to reduce that risk and to improve your chances of a successful transaction. Due Diligence should help businesses add value to their new acquisitions. As well as simply checking things out it should be structured to help businesses make better development decisions. Despite being one of the most important steps of the process of acquisition, due diligence is frequently misunderstood and mishandled. This course aims to change that.

Summary:
Most budgetary control systems in the UK were introduced in an environment in which the predominant management style was “command and compliance” to which the once-a-year, for-a-year budget, expressed in the language of accounting provided a compatible approach. As the rate of change in the business environment has increased, however, this approach to budgeting has come to be seen as not only inappropriate but dangerously misleading. In this course we look at a different approach, designed to adapt to volatility and to match the increasingly prevalent “trust and commitment” style of management. It is infinitely flexible and expressed in the language of financial management.

Key performance indicators enable us to control performance. They are powerful tools not because they tell us results, but because they enable us to change them. In this course Robin Tidd argues that any organisation that uses KPIs but fails to link the “blue sky” strategic aspiration for the next 3-5 years to action within 3-5 weeks is failing to use KPIs effectively. Drawing from over 25 years experience of advising business how to make their plans reality, Robin’s advice is always firmly based in the real-world. By linking short term results to longer term goals, he shows how KPIs are the key tool for management control.
