Budget Presentation Webinars
Learning how to present a budget shouldn't feel like decoding ancient hieroglyphics. We've been running these sessions since mid-2024 and honestly, watching people discover they can actually make numbers interesting has been the best part. No death by PowerPoint here – just practical skills you'll use next week.
Upcoming Sessions – Winter 2025
We're scheduling sessions throughout August and September 2025. Each webinar runs for 90 minutes with time for questions afterward. And yes, we record everything so you can watch again later when you're not juggling three other meetings.
Making Executives Actually Listen
You've got seven minutes to present a quarterly budget review. We'll show you how to structure it so they remember the key points instead of checking their phones. Real examples from board presentations that worked – and a few that definitely didn't.
Visual Design That Doesn't Lie
Charts can tell stories or they can mislead – sometimes without you realizing it. We'll walk through choosing the right visualizations for different audiences and avoiding the subtle tricks that make data look better (or worse) than it really is.
Handling the Tough Questions
Someone always asks about that variance in Q2. Or why you're over budget in marketing. We'll practice responding to challenging questions without getting defensive or losing credibility. Includes actual questions from recent presentations that made people sweat.
Who's Leading These Sessions
We've pulled together people who've been in the trenches. They've presented budgets to skeptical boards, pitched for funding that seemed impossible, and survived more than a few budget crises. More importantly, they can explain things without making you feel like you should've known this already.
Both have spent years training finance teams across Australia. They know what actually works in real presentations – not just what looks good in theory.

What We'll Actually Cover
Live Practice
We'll ask volunteers to present a short budget snippet during the session. Don't worry – it's supportive feedback, not a roast. Watching others get coached helps you identify issues in your own approach too.
Template Library
After each webinar, you'll get access to slide templates, chart examples, and script frameworks. Not because we think you should copy them exactly, but as starting points you can adapt to your organization's style.
Follow-Up Resources
Questions always come up after you've had time to think. We maintain a discussion forum where participants can post challenges they're facing and get feedback from instructors and other attendees working through similar situations.
Register for Winter Sessions
Spaces are limited because we want to keep these interactive. If a session fills up, we'll add you to the waitlist for the next one. Sessions typically run every few weeks through autumn 2025.
