Business Skills for Managers without a “Formal Business Background”
Do you speak Business?
You’re attending a large business meeting and about to make a proposal on your area of expertise, be it law, engineering, chemical analysis or another area. The Marketing people have just finished talking about reduced rating points and O.T.S. in the digital age and leveraging more added-value; Finance is bemoaning the lack of focus on net cash flow; the boss is relating this to performance management and succession planning while telling you your PowerPoint slides are illegible and demanding to know the barriers to entry that your proposal will create. You find yourself wondering what language they are all speaking!
