- Understanding when revenue is earned through the income statement.
- The necessity of learning which elements to include and exclude in forecasts.

At the height of the financial crisis, a fresh college graduate named Chris Reilly embarked on his career in an environment fraught with uncertainty and disarray. In the fall of 2009, just a year after the iconic Lehman Brothers' collapse sent shockwaves through the global economy, Chris joined FTI Consulting, tasked with the formidable challenge of cleaning up after one of the largest bankruptcies in history.  Chris's journey into the intricate world of private equity, and his subsequent mission to educate others on the art of financial modeling, is both inspiring and a blueprint for success in the nano market ecosystem. Chris Reilly is the Founder of Mission Capital Consulting and the brains and vision behind digital courses marketed as Financial Modeling Education.
