“This letter serves as a letter of reference and recommendation for Hugh Blackman. I worked with Hugh at United Medical center for a period of 10 years directly and indirectly. I serve as the Director of Biomedical Engineering and Hugh in the role of Finance Analyst and later Manager of Finance. During this timeline Hugh oversaw and managed a dynamic and efficient Finance division. At that time United Medical Center was a struggling healthcare facility requiring a unique creative and strong skill set that could endure some of the challenges being faced by the hospital. This required individuals that could do more with less, identify problems, provide/recommend solutions; but, more importantly, ensure that a quality service was still being provide to its patients, as well as, the employees providing financial services and advising Administration with difficult financial decisions. No ordinary feat by any means. Hugh continually rose to the challenges and provided the best solutions within the scope of the hospital vision budget and confines. He is an excellent leader with the ability to motivate all levels of support. Hugh always faired very well under each new Chief Executive Officer in the oversight and management of the Finance Division. I would highly recommend Hugh for another opportunity within any organization seeking a financial professional who "makes a difference".”

What are the best ways to present budget forecasts to non-accountants?
I have always found it easier to convince non-accounting individuals responsible for department budgets by holding one-on-one sessions before the group presentation. This way you get to learn the depth of understanding of the teams you are presenting to. Aside from all the presentation material, accessibility is the greatest friend to a new or seasoned finance executive presenting to a team who might be unfamiliar with the tasks being asked of them to help build and manage a budget or the financials for a specific unit, segment, department in a company. As finance and accounting professionals we must remember that we are a resource to the management team and as such we need to have constant communication and contact with them.
