Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Christian Wattig, and I’ve spent the last three years helping 1000+ corporate finance professionals and business leaders take their FP&A skills to the next level via my courses and workshops.

Before that, I spent eleven years at Procter & Gamble and Unilever leading FP&A teams and managing business partners, taking Squarespace public as an FP&A leader, and working in many other finance and leadership roles.

I’m also the director of the Wharton School's FP&A certificate program. And I regularly get hired to uplevel the FP&A skills of teams in top companies such as Lowe's, Merck, Google, and many others.

Christian is outstanding. He has wonderful experiences to draw from and and uses concrete examples that you can relate to and learn from. By providing slides and materials, you can focus your time on listening versus having to worry that you haven't written down important notes. [Review from Christian’s cohort-based FP&A course]
