Danielle Stein Fairhurst, Principal at Plum Solutions, provides an engrossing conversation about the essence of financial modelling, and the value it holds for BAs; how to enter financial modelling as a career; predictive analytics; and the critical skills of budgeting and forecasting.

Danielle also talks with relish about the importance of Excel in the business world; the types of services that Plum Solutions offers; the distinguishing difference between financial analysis and data analysis; the value of storytelling to better communicate financial results to stakeholders; and using Power BI as a marketable skill.
