Robust financial modeling

“

- There's a decision coming up and it's a big one. But how will your organization choose the right one to make? Well look, I won't leave you hanging any longer. The answer is financial modeling. Financial modeling, in a very basic sense, is about collecting and organizing good data to help you predict the future, or at least make a pretty good estimate. Of course, you need to make sure the data sources are highly credible. You also need to make sure your model has robust calculations. You need to be able to write up reports of your outputs and you also need to be able to translate everything for management and decision makers. Now look, this may seem like a lot, but don't worry. We'll cover all of that in this course. By the way, I'm Josh Rischin, and I've been helping people make critical business decisions for over 15 years now, and I actually love building financial models and seeing the positive impact that they can make on businesses. So let's untangle your decision. Let's figure out what data you need, how to know it's the right data to use, and put it all together in a financial model that will help your organization make the most informed decision.
