Who is this client? 

Liam is a young professional early in his career in finance. He worked in a fast paced, high pressure environment and he feels that his communication is lacking in clarity.

• Prepare concise, accurate, and well-reasoned analyses of financial strengths and weaknesses
• Provide analytical findings to account management team 
• Participate in decision making with internal and external stakeholders
