The Job of the Accounting Manager:
Leading-Edge Strategies

Course Outline

The accounting manager's role has changed dramatically over the past ten years. Once an overseer of transaction processes and financial reporting, today's accounting manager must be prepared to play a larger role as planner, leader, communicator, internal consultant and business partner to senior management. Functional expertise still matters, but it isn't sufficient for excellent performance in today's business environment.

You'll learn how to:

• Fulfill the role of a technical accountant managing other accountants
• Take a larger part in internal consulting, process improvement, and performance evaluation
• Assist senior management in budgeting and strategic planning
• Be a better communicator both verbally and in writing
• Develop team skills
• Collaborate effectively with other business functions

The Job of the Accounting Manager is written for accounting managers and all those who aspire to that position. It provides a solid grounding in all the traditional responsibilities of accounting management, including the latest on IT/accounting systems content and activity-based costing. But it goes much further, imparting the broader business knowledge, skills, and competencies that every accounting manager will need today and in the years ahead.

The course is amply illustrated with exercises, exhibits, and helpful checklists.

Topics include:

• The Fundamental Expertise of the Accounting Manager
• Cash Management
• The Accounting Manager's role with Accounts Receivable Management
• The Accounting Manager's Role with Inventory and Its Management
• Long-Term Operational Assets and Other Long-Term Assets
• Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities
