In-Person Seminar

Open Book Management

When everyone understands what it takes to run the business, they make better decisions.

In many organizations, the most critical information lives in the heads of those at the top, and they carry the burden for making tough decisions alone. Open Book Management transforms financial information from something that only leaders know into a shared understanding that empowers everyone to contribute to an organization’s success.

In this highly interactive seminar, you'll learn how you can use Open Book Management to engage employees in positively impacting your bottom line while having fun!

From determining what to measure on a scoreboard to creating effective meetings where you run the business, the Open Book Management seminar will provide plenty of practical tools, real-life examples of success (and failure!), and the chance to practice what you’re learning immediately.

"You took an overwhelming topic (finances!) and made it so that it was an easy and digestible topic for all roles of the company."
