Business Acumen to Build Your Credibility, Career, and Company
An MBA in 180 pages, Seeing the Big Picture simplifies the complexities of businesses large and small and shows you how a deep understanding of your company can help build the credibility and career you want. And it can make your work more fulfilling and purpose-driven by highlighting how you influence the success of your team, department, or organization.

All companies are driven to success or failure by the same five simple drivers: cash, profit, assets, growth, and people. Kevin Cope, founder of Acumen Learning, will help you appreciate how your day-to-day decisions can balance these drivers and contribute to the big picture of your organization`s success. You`ll discover the acumen you need to bring real value and passion to your work.

Whether you`re on the manufacturing floor or sitting in the corner office, you can learn how to follow the drivers through to measurable results -- conquering your fear of numbers. Using Kevin`s simple explanations of the most important metrics presented in the income statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash flows, you`ll be able to quickly review financial reports for signs of success or impending doom.

Convincingly communicate your ideas to leaders, improve your team`s performance, even launch a successful business of your own. No matter your goal, give yourself the foundational knowledge every businessperson needs, and discover new strategies for proving your value.
