This action workshop is designed to motivate and develop credit managers, credit supervisors and credit controllers who want to succeed in today’s competitive work environment.

Objectives of the workshop

Every business enterprise (and the manager of each division or function, including credit) needs a philosophy of management that will

  • permit the growth of individual responsibility and strength
  • give cohesive direction to effort
  • maintain teamwork
  • harmonise the goals of the individual and the enterprise.

This workshop is aimed at the Credit Manager and provides a wide range of tools to streamline the Credit Department for optimal performance and allow for greater collections. From a well-structured base, the workshop shows you how to motivate and train staff to be smarter, faster and better at the entire Credit Process in terms of all relevant legislation.
