"While earning my Bachelor of Arts in Marketing Management, I learned about financial analysis as it relates to business marketing. I also learned how to read financial statements such as profit and loss statements correctly. As a Product Manager, I believe it's essential that I read a P&L statement and make sense of costs and expenses incurred during a project. This data will help me better understand the company's ability to generate profit from the product we are focusing on. Overall, I consider my financial analysis and P&L knowledge to be intermediate. I plan to learn more and grow my knowledge base by continually educating myself on financial analysis. For instance, I have recently applied to Harvard Business School Online course called 'Leading with Finance.' This course stands out because it will equip me with a stronger foundation of knowledge of financial principles, understand my employers' market, create and assess value, and communicate financial decisions to stakeholders. I look forward to starting this course and coming to Amazon with a stronger knowledge in identifying ways to create and measure value to evaluate and pitch-worthy products."
