In order for your managerial, analytical, and predictive skills to flourish in the world of business, you need to know exactly what’s being communicated in every financial statement, client meeting and conversation. There’s no way that’s possible without a thorough grasp of accounting basics.
That deep understanding doesn’t come through memorization exercises of formal terms. I believe that the fundamentals of accounting need to be presented to students in a way that is easily understandable and applicable to their lives. After seven years of client success, it seems that my students agree.
The goal is to build a foundation that will allow you, a prospective businessman or businesswoman, to become Managerially Conversational: comfortable enough with accounting to understand what the numbers are saying and eventually participate intelligently in the conversations surrounding them.
