Managing Finance and Information: Competence Approach to Supervisory Management (In Charge) - Softcover

Reseña del editor

This guide aims to provide supervisors and front-line managers with the knowledge needed to fulfil the Management Charter Initiative's (MCI) supervisory management standards. Whilst finance at supervisory level has no dedicated management standards, it is vital that the competent supervisor/front line manager can understand the financial implications of their role. The finance section of this book provides the reader with an understanding of the language and practices of the finance function as they relate to the work situation. The information section considers the types of information the supervisor/front line manager is likely to encounter, and looks at the ways of distributing and presenting such information. Throughout the book, the user is helped in relating knowledge to the MCI standards and their own work experience. The book outlines the relevant MCI standards at the beginning and end of each chapter and provides chapter summaries, on-going case studies and think-points. A tutor's pack containing further cases, questions, overhead masters and lecture notes will be available free to adopters. This book should be suitable for participants on supervisory/front-line management programmes at NVQ/SVQ level 3 (NEBSM, ISM, LCCI, RSA); participants on company short courses; and newly-appointed supervisors/front-line managers.
