Instructions
Imagine that you have recently been promoted to the role of Chief Training and Education
Officer for Health Care Systems, Inc., a regional not for profit hospital, with over 3,000
employees who serve all aspects of patient services.
In this new role, the CEO has asked to create a training module for all employees. This training
and education module will focus on the uses of financial statements to make effective decisions.
The CEO also requested that you include some educational information on how financial
statements reflect an organization’s financial health.
When completing this Assignment, consider the following:
What information is most important for the employees to understand? Ask yourself, “If I was an employee, what would I need to know and why?”
Consider how training and educating employees on the uses of financial statements may influence their everyday decisions. What information should the employees know? What is most important?
What kinds of examples can I provide to show the impact of financial statements on decision making?
