"Yes, in my previous role I was able to interact with non-finance personnel when I would meet with the marketing team to review their results each month. They didn't have a strong understanding of accounting principles, so I tried to 'speak their language' as much as possible when discussing their department's results vs. budget. I believe I have the ability to communicate effectively with all personnel in an organization."
