Encounter Seminar: Predicting and Preempting
the Corporate Heart Attack
Did you know that a 20% decline in the operating
dynamic of a company leads to a 40% decline in profits?
Long before a crisis hits, and long before
trouble shows up in financial statements or key performance indicators, the signs of trouble are there.
The good news is that early on these signs can be identified, they can be quantified and they can be transformed. What are the results from early detection?
The bottom line is restored and growth is renewed.
In this environment of intensifying global
competition and increasing interest rates, senior executives know:
- How easily and silently their companies can
slip into decline
- How urgent "proactive adaptation" has become
- That waiting to take action is never the right thing
to do and seldom truly successful
- Early diagnosis is crucial
- Preemptive action is what is needed
- That preparedness for significant growth begins in the operating dynamic of the company
Recently, detection of the earliest stages of trouble – or health – of a company was neither feasible nor possible. However, developments over the last few years make early identification of corporate trajectory – growth or decline
– both possible and easy.
What you will learn:
- The full spectrum of the corporate decline process
- How to identify the three signs of decline - hidden, subtle and overt
- When to use the measures (Financial, KPI, performance driver)
- The key measures of the hidden phase of decline
- What the full corporate decline curve looks like
Who should attend?
- C-Level Managers
- Corporate Development Specialists
- Investment Bankers
- Loan Officers
- Private Equity Investors
