ABOUT DEBORAH HOLSTON

Hi everyone, I joined LinkedIn to offer financial leadership, analysis and management; strategic planning; GAAP accounting; and business turnaround expertise to the community. I am very interested in analyzing business operations and growth opportunities and introducing strategic and tactical solutions to improve performance and efficiencies while reducing costs. Over the course of my career I have been directly involved in financial audits, board presentations and have provided leadership for all aspects of financial operations for multi-million dollar businesses and institutions with operations in both domestic and international sectors. I think you will find that I am a down to earth and engaging executive who has accomplished some truly amazing goals by serving as a liaison across the accounting, finance, information technology and administrative teams. Additional topics to discuss include: cash management; investment tracking; performance metrics; budgeting and forecasting; cost analysis and financial accounting; information systems management; financial statement development and financial consulting. I am also willing to network and provide counsel on: business development activities and methodologies; cross-functional management; multi-cultural communications and relationships; offshore outsourcing and team leadership; website redevelopment; providing direction, staff development; and the re-engineering of mission and focus. If you are looking to network please feel free to send me an email to h••••••••@hotmail.com or use a LinkedIn mail. Specialties: Other topics of great interest to me include Board Development, and not-for-profit management. And why profit is NOT a four letter word (hint - its all about being sustainable to achieve your mission).
