From Planning to Forecast: Your 2026 Budget Roadmap
Most finance leaders spend three months building a forecast that's outdated by April.
This webinar walks through how to build defensible budgets, manage stakeholder collaboration effectively, and create a process that stays relevant throughout the year.
You'll learn practical approaches to assumption management, department level planning, and how to move from explaining variances to helping leadership make forward looking decisions.
What You'll Learn:
Why budgets become obsolete within 60 days and the quarterly refresh process that keeps forecasts relevant all year
Working with department heads using intake forms that actually get completed and reporting structures that drive real conversations
Managing dynamic assumptions around revenue, headcount, operational spend, and capital investments as conditions change throughout the year
Building defensible bottoms up forecasts that leadership trusts, plus how to handle consolidation when you're working across multiple entities
