You already know how to run the floor. What you were never taught is how finance thinks and that missing half is quietly deciding who gets promoted past you.

Jay David spent thirty years on both sides of this exact fence, as a cost accountant, then as a COO who ran the floor himself. He's not teaching this from a textbook. He's teaching it from the meeting where the numbers were wrong and everyone in the room believed them anyway.
What it actually takes to save a failing business — told through real companies and real stakes, from someone who ran the floor himself, not a case-study author.

Thirteen modules, ledger to line — the financial fluency an MBA was never built to give you specifically. (Launching November 2026 — early enrollment open now.)

When the whole plant, not just one leader, needs to close this gap — a 90-day engagement for the organization.
You stop being the person whose fix gets overruled by a spreadsheet you can't argue with. You become the person who builds the spreadsheet everyone else's fix has to survive. That's not a credential on a wall. It's the actual skill that gets you into the next room.
