Boardroom Financial Essentials
By directors for directorsTM
Navigating the Financial Aspects of Boardroom Decision
Making
The ICD’s Boardroom Financial Essentials course is an
immersive, one-day program designed to help directors better-execute
their core responsibilities. This is not a finance course for
non-financial managers, or an accounting course on financial statements.
This is a course designed by directors, for directors that focuses on
linking financial decisions and approvals to strategic
oversight of their organization.
The course’s unique framework will allow participants to
experience real-life board issues, learning about and delving into the
financial aspects associated with them. Participants will have the
opportunity to tackle some of the more financially-oriented agenda items
that directors encounter and need to work through, including:
- Linking financial plans to strategic plans
- Audit Committee reports, and the role of the non-audit-committee
director
- Connecting strategy and risk oversight with capital projects and
expenditures
- Executive compensation
- Unique financial issues for not-for-profit/charitable
organizations
