Corporate Restructuring & Business Turnaround
Diagnose distress, renegotiate, and execute credible turnarounds.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Finance produces more reports every year, yet the same questions recur in every board meeting because corporate restructuring still does not answer the decisions the business actually faces. The analysts who wanted to build decision support leave for employers whose data lets them — and the capability gap compounds. You will rebuild a broken process with your own hands in the lab — because executives who have done the work once stop accepting promises about it.

The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Close That Ate the Month
Finance at a diversified industrial group spends the first two weeks of every month closing the books; by the time the numbers land, the decisions they were meant to inform are already made. The CFO’s corporate restructuring mandate has become a board question.
Your decision: Redesign the corporate restructuring data architecture, buy a consolidation platform, or add headcount to the close — and decide which to present first to a sceptical board.
IPAT Data Lab™
The corporate restructuring close at a county treasury runs on spreadsheets held together by three indispensable people.
Dataset: Synthetic general-ledger extract with the reconciliation issues every month-end reveals.
Your task: Rebuild the close as a controlled pipeline, automate the reporting layer, and document the audit trail.
An automated corporate restructuring close design an auditor would accept.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
