Have you ever heard yourself, or a member of your HR team, say phrases like these?

“I’m not really a numbers person.”

“I wasn’t sure what that meant, but I didn’t want to ask.”

“I’ll be questioned on the costs of this, and I’m not sure how to show the difference it will make.”

Well this workshop is here to help.

We know that to demonstrate the value HR brings to an organisation, you need to be speaking the same business language as the people who make the financial decisions.

Join us for this 1-day Business Finance workshop, designed specifically for an HR audience, and tackling the unique challenges HR has in connecting your work to the company bottom line.  You’ll be working with Ashleigh Rowlands, Client Manager at Knights Lowe Accountancy who is skilled at supporting non-finance professionals to develop their knowledge.
