THE BUSINESS EXPERIENCE FOR CHEMICAL ORGANISATIONS

The Business Experience significantly improves commercial awareness, financial understanding and business acumen of anyone working in a chemical environment

We take groups of delegates and immerse them in a competitive market environment. They run competing firms, making all the key decisions and then live with the consequences. Our highly experienced trainers interpret delegate performance, advise teams and reinforce best practice as well as your key business messages

The benefits to the firm are huge

  • Staff committed to corporate goals
  • Big picture understanding across the firm

The messages that we are asked to promote vary but typically include the following

  • Monitoring and control of personal realisation (recovery) performance
  • Operating statements, profits, margins, mark-ups and contribution
  • The difference between cash flow and profit, reasons and importance
  • How to make financial decisions
  • In house performance targets and metrics
  • Stock; working capital; inflation; economic impacts
