This is a specially designed program for corporate directors of large companies including those directors of corporations that are publicly traded on the securities exchanges. In today’s complex corporate environment, a director and any member of the board, has increasing corporate responsibilities and liabilities, some of which are very severe in relation to the compensation received for being a director.

Organizations are managed by managers at all levels across different functions and operating processes. Financial resources are then allocated and these managers make the decisions on how they are deployed for the most effective outcome at work. Managers operate with their team members, colleagues and subordinates. While they may not be accountants, all of them have some form of accountability over budgets and how the allocated resources are used.

Business and corporate activities or organizations involve the use of financial resources and require decision making by executives and staff across the organization. This is made more complex by varying demands of customers, clients and suppliers to the organization. This may be complicated further by new government regulations and actions of market competitors. All of these together create a risk environment that impact an organization’s success, or failure.
