Develop Into a Director
Moving from manager to director is probably the largest leap in any accountants’ career – suddenly you are on your own! The number 1 role is different, with wider, greater responsibilities – and for some it can come as a shock. You often need different skills from those you used in a ‘number 2’ position.
This course learns from a CFO who has been a successful ‘number 1’ and is able to pass on top tips, survival techniques and advice on how to make this leap. Whether delegates have recently become CFOs or are soon to do so, this course is excellent preparation for possibly the most important move in an accountant’s career.
THIS COURSE IS RUN BY CIMA MASTERCOURSES
