Meet Faculty Member, Anne Freiermuth
The basics!
Anne Freiermuth, Principal, Mission Math
How long have you been a faculty member of the Center for Nonprofit Leadership faculty? What do you enjoy most about serving as faculty/teaching?
This is my first year teaching for CNL, but I've been teaching for 6 years. I love teaching and my favorite part is taking the mystery out of financial statements so that accounting can also be used for planning and making an organization more resilient.
What workshop do you have coming up? What can attendees expect and why should people attend?
I'm teaching two classes: a 4 part series called Nonprofit Accounting Bootcamp and a one session workshop called Financial Oversight & Accountability for Nonprofit Board Members. For the Bootcamp class, I'm pulling back the curtain and showing the mechanics of accounting with a giant case study. For the Board Members class, we'll focus on how to avoid scary and expensive liability. With both classes, my goal is to provide attendees with the information they need to get good use out of their organization's financial statements and learn how to avoid trouble.
How would you describe your teaching/facilitation style? What do your students say about you?
I'm a big fan of case studies, real world examples, and learning by doing. Understanding theory is incredibly valuable to the foundation of accounting and compliance, but students also need to understand applications. My students say I am high energy and enthusiastic about making accounting and compliance more bite-sized and less daunting topics.
