Jeff Kroeker
Jeff Kroeker’s teaching focuses on the intersection of strategic decision-making and cost analysis, with courses ranging from Introduction the Management Accounting, Cost Analysis to Accounting for Performance and Control. The class format is highly interactive with real world scenarios analyzed each class in which management tools are deployed to solve business decisions. There is an equal blend of quantitative and qualitative elements, where, thinking critically is at the core of each lesson with no value placed on memorization. This results in high engagement and a continuously active learning environment.
