When it comes to numbers, there is always more than meets the eye. In operational finance, you will learn how to read the “story” that the balance sheet and income statement tells about the company’s operations. The insights you gain from this “financial story” will then become a tool for short-term decision-making at the top management level relating to current assets, current liabilities and the management of working capital. Finally, by the end of the course you will understand the financial consequences of managerial decisions on operations, marketing, etc.

TOP REVIEWS FROM FINANCE FOR MANAGERS
I liked the course. I learnt a lot of useful calculations and ideas, which I will use in my job.
The teacher was good and the course was interesting.
Great course. Really get a grip of the basics of Finance. Especially ones that you will find working in other functions (such as Sales, Marketing, PM, etc...)
Prof was awesome. He used story-telling and cliffhangers to keep students engaged. I can't believe finance could be this interesting.
It's a great course that helps break components of P&L and balance sheet.
Emphasis is on Receivables, Payables, Dupont analysis and how these variables affect the cash/bank position of the firm.
