Deloitte’s research (2014) into planning, budgeting and forecasting found that 37% of respondents admitted to a failure in aligning their planning, budgeting and forecasting effectively with corporate strategy. In these circumstances, there is a risk that the activities of the organization will be misdirected as well as lacking in focus, alignment and cohesion because expectations have not been properly set. For organizations operating in a world of continuous change, annual budgets need to be upgraded to include responsive, flexible continuous forecasting. Rolling forecasts offer greater visibility into future operating performance. Unlike budgets, they reflect the fact that operations don’t switch off at year-end.
This two-day Strategic Financial Planning: Financial Analysis, Forecasting and Budgeting for Improved Profitability executive program aims to provide you with the analytical skills to build on world-class practices into your company’s budgeting and forecasting systems, and describes how to integrate business strategy, budgeting and forecasting into a single process. Moving away from the limitations often associated with traditional static budgeting, this program will have a special focus on the growing trend to “Rolling” budgets and forecasts. You will get to learn firsthand about the “Beyond Budgeting” concept from a member of the Beyond Budgeting Round Table (BBRT) UK.
The Faculty Director, Alan Fell, brings a highly pragmatic, no-nonsense and robustly disciplined approach to the subject. The overall approach is that of higher-level strategic financial management perspective and specifically designed for those at management and supervisory level.

Going Beyond Budgeting - A Growing Concept • The sought-after benefits: How much is about changing the planning and budgeting process and how much is
about management philosophy and culture?• The key principles of Process and Leadership within Beyond Budgeting• Abandoning the negotiated annual performance trap: Incentivizing people to achieve market and benchmark suc-

proach, what can we NOT do in future• Rolling budgets or Rolling forecasts? Which works better? Understanding the management accountability impli-
cations• Different aspects and types of Rolling: Explore the range and scope of possibilities. Should Rolling apply to strate-
gic and capital budgets? If so, conceptually how can this be done?• The behavioral disciplines: Rolling only works when management act professionally and do NOT play the typical
budgetary “games”. How can this be effectively implemented?• The 9 key “decision parameters” of practical implementation for Rolling
