ICASL/CIM - seminar on Marketing Finance
In today's business environment the factors that contribute to the
financial performance of an organization and its shareholders' value
demand a deep understanding of the marketing-finance relationship.
In today's context, it is not enough any more to be proficient in
either marketing or finance, as companies need people who can form a
bridge between their marketing and finance departments. Professionals
are required to analyze, evaluate and consult organizations on the role
of marketing strategy and plans that enhance financial performance.
Based on this importance of "Measuring the impact of your Brand
Drivers in Tough Times" the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Sri-Lanka (ICASL) with The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), Sri
Lanka Region, will present a seminar on Marketing Finance, conducted by
a pioneer in marketing accountability analysis, Director Brand Science
UK Sam Dias and the Sri Lankan Guru in Marketing Director, PIM, Dr.
Uditha Liyanage.
The one-day session will assist participants to deepen their
understanding of the vital interface between the finance and marketing
disciplines, especially during times of turbulence.
While creating a mindset to appreciate brands and assets and their
place in balance sheets and acquisitions, it will also identify the keys
to Demand Management for sustaining positive cash flows and to isolate
Key Performance Drivers for strategic resource allocation.
ICASL has chosen the topic of Marketing Finance which is a vastly
discussed topic in the global arena, to enhance the abilities and
knowledge of the local professionals. This seminar is targeted at CFOs,
Finance Directors/Managers, CMOs, Marketing and Sales Directors/Managers
and other senior financial and marketing professionals and could be
graded as a 'must attend' event to all those who seek continuous
professional development (CPD).
This CPD Accredited event will be held on March 20 from 8.30 am -
