Financial Storytelling

“Communicate your numbers with a story and confidence”

Register Now:

Finance Managers and Accountants constantly juggle serious responsibilities within the organization, that is the responsibility to manage finances as well as to report them accurately to all the stakeholders. As all the financial reports are very technical and not many in the organization are familiar with the IFRS, other reporting standards, and regulatory requirements, finance professionals often face difficulty in communicating the financial information and graphical reports to the non-finance staff and sometimes even the Board members. The storytelling technique is proven to impart information where the participants get involved by having an immersive experience that allows them to enjoy absorbing the information dynamically and entertainingly.

This program aims to engage all those finance managers and accountants and to provide them with the skills they need to communicate financial information to finance and non-finance professionals to help them make better business decisions.

The training program is offered via following channels:

  1. Self-paced lessons
