The Next Chapter of Forward Focused

Leading Through Financial Literacy

As a leader, you know you need to make wise and efficient financial decisions. But you can also make a real impact in other peoples’ lives by helping them learn to be smarter with their own hard-earned money.

In this episode, we’ll help you better understand investing and building wealth, so you and your team can live your fullest lives. This information is so important for a well-rounded leader.

Fun fact: The average millionaire in the U.S. spends 8 hours a month analyzing their net worth, bank statements, assets and liabilities, etc. Financial literacy is absolutely worth the effort.

Take the First Step:

I highly recommend a Profit & Loss Statement and a Pro Forma sheet as the first steps toward financial literacy. If you’re interested in one or both of these tools, send me an email at [email protected] and we’ll get you a copy.
