Course highlight

In today’s competitive environment it is essential that managers think and behave as if they were the shareholders of the company.

In this course you will learn how to measure shareholder value creation on a monthly or a quarterly basis. We will teach you how to calculate the Economic Value Added (EVA) for your organisation. We will explain why setting bonus targets based on performance against budget is often detrimental to value creation and show how you can design systems that help measure and reward long term shareholder value creation using the EVA system. We will demonstrate how you can develop the EVA system into an integrated financial decision making tool used for project appraisal and M&A (company valuation) decisions. Together we will analyse what are the performance levers that allow you to help your organisation maximise shareholder value.

A pleasant and knowledgeable instructor with a lot of interaction among participants.

An excellent course for people like myself.

Congratulations! Very well done. Nothing more to add.

I really appreciated the empathy and skills of the lecturer Bruno Bosch. Also, the size of the group (7 persons) was perfect to have the necessary interactivity throughout the course.

I strongly recommended this training to my colleagues as I found it very useful.

I think this was one of the best course I've ever attended. The trainer, Mrs Maureen, was extremely pedagogic and the structure of the course was very well planned with just the right mixture of theory versus practical examples and exercises.

It was a very enjoyable course. The group was small which made it easier to be 100% involved.  The exercises and case study were absolutely great and necessary to put the theory in practice. A very knowledgeable teacher.

It was nice to have a lecturer with profound knowledge on the topic so that the level of discussion could go further than the simple basics of valuation.

Lecturer had good understanding of the subject and good understanding of practical application.

Perfect for me. Exactly what I was looking for.
