Managing finances

Introduction  

Introduction  

This introduction to financial management is designed to give you some basics. It is more about the manager's role. Examples are from training and event management. It does not even cover all the basics, and you should also refer to The money pages for the balance sheet, the Profit and Loss (P & L) statement, and business ratios. In fact, many MBA textbooks on financial management run into 500 pages. Hopefully, however, a simple introduction will meet most of your needs, cover some things not usually mentioned anywhere else, and help you to understand the bigger books when you need them.
