Strengthening Financial Acumen | Elevating Strategic Decision-Making at a Global Healthcare Solutions Provider | 2025
Program Overview
Many senior leaders operate with financial responsibility but without deep confidence in financial concepts. Recognizing this, a leading healthcare technology and solutions provider partnered with GlobalGyan Leadership Academy to enhance financial savviness across its mid-senior leadership. The goal was to equip them with practical tools to make data-backed, margin-conscious decisions in a fast-scaling, project-driven environment.
Delivered as a virtual journey across 4 batches and over 120 participants, the program focused on helping leaders internalize financial language, interpret business performance, and integrate profitability metrics into daily decisions.
