    Anne Hawkins

    Anne Hawkins started her career as an apprentice in a multinational engineering group. Frustrated by the inability of most accountants to answer simple questions without the aid of an excel spreadsheet balancing in three dimensions to the last rupee, she started her own training business and has developed an enviable reputation for explaining financial matters in straightforward simple terms. Anne has also written a number of successful books including Lean Means Beans and 100 Great Cost-Cutting Ideas (Marshall Cavendish).
