What he managed to bring to the forefront of the presentation was why budgets fail, citing reasons such as: the budget should be prepared by the DPs and not the managers; they're irrelevant and inflexible; and they dictate, which breeds resentment.
Detail and simplicity should go hand in hand when preparing a budget and a good budget allows managers to identify problems in processes, problems before they become an issue, and act as a motivator to allow opportunity and innovation.
Grant's presentation was filled with dealers from across Australia, all eager to take home new ideas to drive their business forward.
