Meet Toshi Shibano, PhD

Founder and President
Executive Financial Literacy, Inc.

Toshi Shibano, PhD, has been delivering financial literacy and value creation programs for 34 years world-wide at GE, Siemens, Longs Drugs, and other Fortune 1000 companies.

  • He taught for 21 years on the faculty of GE’s Advanced Financial Management Program.
  • He served for 23 years on business school faculties at Stanford, Berkeley, Chicago and Columbia.

Toshi believes that, when executives fully understand and connect their efforts to their CEO’s financial and value creation objectives, they will make better decisions and create more value for their company.

Here's What My Graduates and Their Leaders Say About My Program

Testimonals about Individual Benefits

“Toshi’s program is connected to what we are doing in real life. He creates links between what I know, what happens in the business, and how I should articulate and communicate that to my management. I can make better decisions and actually connect to the way we are making decisions. I would definitely recommend the program both to my colleagues and to the company.”

“In Toshi’s program, it’s more about how do you effectively sell what you do in financial terms that a senior executive is looking for. How do you align yourself with their strategy in terms that they are familiar with? I’ll be better able to explain the value I provide the company in quantitative financial language."

“What I've learned in Toshi’s program, and what I find really reassuring and exciting, is that it's all about numbers being a tool and a means to better decisions.  What it has done for me is it’s given me a different vocabulary to be able to express the value that I bring and that my organization brings. It really has given me the language that I can now use to express that.”

Testimonals about Team Benefits

“Toshi’s program is essential for R&D/Product Marketing teams to align and learn more about financial elements and language. He provides a working template for teams to gather their thoughts and ideas in a very well-organized flow. It allows teams to present to executive management why they need to invest in their programs.”

“The primary impact of Toshi’s course is it creates greater alignment between teams, finance teams, lines of business in terms of really having a common language around projects and investments. And just being able to accelerate our efforts because of that common language. My newfound knowledge and language will really help to shape some really big decisions. In a business the size of mine, we’re talking millions of dollars of impact.”
Paxton Cooper

“Toshi’s class helped everyone on my team to translate the expertise they already have in their non-financial areas (marketing, R&D) into the financial language that I need to make decisions and manage them. His class is absolutely essential to promote that thinking.”

Testimonals about Company Benefits

“It was important for Longs to develop – at the director level and above – an understanding of how we make money and create value for our shareholders. Toshi’s program resulted in better day-to-day decision making, increased accountability, and improved collaboration among business units. I would absolutely recommend it to any organization.”
Steve McCann
Steve McCannRetired EVP/CFO
Longs Drugs
“I recommend to our training department that managers that are promoted should automatically be enrolled in this program. I think this would be ideal for people at the director level, as an optional or maybe even a mandatory course. It would really, really improve everyone's financial understanding and enable much more sophisticated conversation with the senior leadership teams."
Robert Bae

LexisNexis
“Toshi’s program is one of the best courses I’ve been to. I’m really pleased I got the whole team here. I think we go away from this armed with a lot of resources to be better in business. We go back already speaking the same language. It really cuts down on the learning curve. We can just immediately jump into doing analysis and improve our business as a result.”
