Attending operational meetings and understanding the financial impact of decisions made in such meetings, adjusting budget and long-term planning.

Here's the first step for college students
If you are interested in finance, you'll get in easier via accounting. You'll also have a solid base understanding of the underlying data you are analyzing and making decisions from. Strongly recommend a Big 4 CPA Firm for your first job. The doors that it will open for your career are crucial. Audit path recommended, although tax can also open doors.
