According to business consultant and trainer, Joan Baker, just like your IQ (Intelligence Quotient) your FQ (Financial Quotient) is critical to your success. More importantly, for those of us who tend to be “number phobic”, your FQ is easily improved. All the numbers and maths you need to understand to excel in your working life were learned in primary school. Business numbers need no longer be confronting.
Readers are encouraged to take the FQ test laid out in the early part of the book and work their way through the chapters. There is also a glossary with clear explanations of the jargon, acronyms and abbreviations associated with business maths.
