Understanding personal and business finance management is a vital life skill that empowers individuals to make informed decisions, plan for the future, and achieve their goals. For children and young adults, learning about finance helps develop habits like saving, budgeting, and understanding the value of money early on. This foundation sets the stage for responsible financial behavior throughout life. For adults, personal finance knowledge ensures better control over daily expenses, debt management, and long-term financial planning, such as retirement savings and investments. Similarly, understanding business finance is crucial for entrepreneurs and professionals to manage cash flow, assess risks, and make strategic decisions that drive growth and sustainability. At any age, financial literacy fosters independence, reduces stress, and equips individuals with the tools to navigate economic uncertainties, ultimately leading to a more secure and successful life.

Manage and administer (purchase) contracts, supplier management
Contract management is ensuring that the agreements laid down in a contract are actually fulfilled. Both the performance and obligations of the supplier are relevant as well as the performance and obligations of the own organization. Poor purchasing contracts or poorly maintained contracts can cause confusion, friction and 'hassle'. Contracts are also sometimes too comprehensive or incomplete. By managing and administering your purchasing contracts in a structured way, you can ensure that the risks surrounding contracts are minimized and that the contracts are used properly. This not only saves time and money, but also generally ensures better relationships with your supplier. I can teach you how to create that structure, organize good tenders, conclude good contracts and manage your contracts better.
