Financial Conversations That Actually Make Sense
Most finance training teaches numbers. We teach people how to talk about numbers in ways that teams understand, executives trust, and boards appreciate. Because what's the point of brilliant analysis if nobody gets what you're saying?

Find Your Starting Point
Different challenges need different approaches. Here's how we help finance professionals across Australia improve their communication impact.
New to Finance Teams
You've got the technical skills but presenting to non-finance stakeholders feels like translating a foreign language. Start with our foundational course in September 2025.
Mid-Career Shift
Moving from pure analysis to management means more presentations, more influence conversations. Our October intensive helps bridge that gap with real scenarios you'll face.
Senior Leadership
Board reports, executive briefings, crisis communications. The stakes are higher, the audience more skeptical. Our advanced program starts in November and focuses on that exact context.
How We Actually Teach This
Forget theory-heavy lectures. Our approach puts you in realistic situations from day one. You'll practice the exact conversations that trip people up back at the office.
- Record yourself explaining complex concepts, then watch back with feedback from peers and instructors
- Simulate tough Q&A sessions where executives challenge your recommendations
- Build presentation frameworks you can use Monday morning for budget reviews
- Practice translating jargon into language that marketing, ops, and sales teams understand
Real Progress From Real People
These are actual outcomes from past participants. Not everyone lands their dream role, but most see measurable improvement in how their work gets received.
Kip Westerlund
Went from dreading board meetings to actually looking forward to them. The reframing techniques helped me stop defending numbers and start telling the story behind them.
Sienna Brookfield
I used to send 40-slide decks that nobody read. Now I lead 15-minute conversations that get decisions made. The shift wasn't in my analysis, it was in how I presented choices to clinical directors who don't speak finance.
Dax Turnbull
Got promoted six months after completing the course. My manager said what changed was my ability to make forecasts relevant to store operations teams instead of just finance.
Ramona Chelsey
Investor presentations used to give me anxiety. The program helped me structure financial updates in ways that answer the questions VCs actually care about before they ask them. Closed our Series B in February 2025 with a deck I'm genuinely proud of.
Next Cohort Starts October 2025
Limited to 18 participants so everyone gets individual coaching time. Applications open in July. If you're tired of feeling like your brilliant analysis gets lost in translation, maybe it's time to work on the translation part.
