DEVELOPING & WRITING PERSUASIVE CAPITAL FUNDING REQUESTS

General Description

This course is particularly useful to employees who seek capital funds to purchase machinery, equipment and other capital assets, and must write convincing reports to management justifying their requests. This workshop marries these two important functions into a cohesive whole. The financial analysis portion stresses the importance of limiting the outflow of cash to only those opportunities that actually add value to the business. The report-writing portion involves developing the specific request, justification, and implementation plan.
