Gene’s
Special Niche: Financial Management
When
you are looking for an experienced
trainer or speaker who will
bring new insights and information
to employees at your next meeting,
conference or retreat, you
will find that Gene Siciliano
occupies a very unique and
valuable niche among financial
consultants. Many speakers
in this field focus on investing,
personal financial planning,
economics or academic issues,
but very few address Gene’s
more business management-oriented
specialty of financial management
and business planning. And
that is very often exactly
what you and your people want – and
need – to hear!

Gene is great at explaining financial concepts in simple
terms to everyone from managers to CEOs so they understand how to work
with financial information to run a business, including
effective use of financial statements, ratios, business plans
and budgets.
- Gene’s credibility comes from over 30
years of financial and general management, over 10 years of
business management consulting, and 7 years as a
professional speaker. His material comes from actual,
current business experience, not library research on a
"hot topic."
- Function-specific topics – no matter
what industry you’re in, if you need to oversee the
financial functions of your company, this is for you.
- Highly customized presentations result in
very high content and take-away value for each audience,
each industry.
- Clear step-by-step method motivates his
audiences to use these tools.
- Participative, high energy, and
enthusiastic style – a new way to present financial
management information, and audiences love it.

"We found your presentation very concise, informative, entertaining, and most importantly, practical. We were extremely impressed that you were able to address a group which included MBAs as well as sales executives with no formal financial training. The response to this seminar has been overwhelmingly positive with many executives asking for a follow-up the next time we conduct a strategic retreat."
- Jeffrey R. Schlesinger, President, Warner Bros. International Television
"Our members enjoyed and appreciated what you shared with us. As you know, our members are all current and former CEOs, and it takes a solid presentation to earn their kudos. They were particularly impressed by the easy-going clarity of your speaking style, presenting cash flow concepts and practices in non-technical ways, and showing them how to apply them in their own businesses. Your ideas certainly sparked a spirited discussion. We were still talking about it long after you left the room."
- Maoshing Ni, PhD, Program Coordinator, Second Thursday

Understanding of financial information is useful
even for other departments, such as Sales, who need to use
it in negotiations with clients, etc. As noted by the
president of Warner Bros. International Television after a
recent seminar:

"We found your presentation very concise,

… and the rave reviews keep coming, sometimes in the most
unexpected forms. At the 1999 national convention for the
National Association of Temporary & Staffing Services (now
American Staffing Association), a woman came up to Gene after
his presentation and exclaimed, "I didn’t know a
financial guy could be so funny!"
