ICAEW Directors Briefings
Directors briefings are for senior managers and strategic decision makers.
ICAEW Directors Briefings
Every now and again as a consultant, manager or business adviser we need to put our hands on short, accurate and trusted materials covering a wide range of topics.
In a previous blog entry, I highlighted some of the fact-sheets available from the CIPD most of which are open to any web site visitor. In the same way that the CIPD fact-sheets provide HR based material, The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAWE) provide a range of Director Briefings for their members and website visitors.
These cover a diverse range of materials including strategy, marketing, business planning etc. What is more, these Directors Briefing topics are covered in just 4 pages and are kept up to date, so data we can trust.
The RapidBI team have used these materials with our clients and hope that you find them useful too:
