All times listed are Eastern Time ZoneWeek 1:_CFO Series: Tactics to Reduce Risk: 3rd Strategy to Help ROICPE: 2Field of Study: AuditingDiscussion Leader: Brian Maturi, MBA, FCADate: Friday, May 3, 11:00 amDescription: What do investors want? They actively pursue three key strategies: 1) improve profit (most over used strategy) 2) reduce investment (an under used strategy) 3) reduce risk (a much-neglected strategy) In this third of three sessions, see 3) above, we will explore strategies to reduce risk. When risks are exhibited on the income statement - it is too late. Risk is silent and insidious. We must plan, as we have seen what happens when risk becomes real and reduces net income. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization plan for risk before the next miscalculation. Be prepared! Week 2:_CFO Series: Why You Should Be a Learnaholic: Staying Ahead!CPE: 2Field of Study: Personal DevelopmentDiscussion Leader: Jane Mims, Ph.D.Date: Friday, May 10, 11:00 amDescription: Do successful people know a secret that keeps them on top? The answer is they are lifelong learners. It is a mindset and a way of life that they have learned to utilize. You did not miss out, those not born with this ability have hope. This course provides quantifiable research to support that learnaholics (or lifetime learners) are clearly more successful, as well as practical actions on how you can stop being left behind and start getting ahead by adopting the habits and mindset of a lifelong learner. The crux is to expand your mind and expand your possibilities. This is the recipe for success you don't want to miss! Week 3:_CFO Series: The ROI on Your People? Maximizing Returns!CPE: 2Field of Study: Business Management & OrganizationDiscussion Leader: Robert Mims, CPADate: Friday, May 17, 11:00 amDescription: Employees drive the written and unwritten culture at your organization. Understanding the key workplace issues and how to solve them in today's environment can maximize the returns that employees provide for an organization. We take a deep dive into the research behind the larger issues with our workforce and discuss multiple practical solutions that will enhance your leadership and growth. How can we realize the most from our staff? Week 4:_CFO Series: Accepting Perfectionists: Understand & AdaptingCPE: 2Field of Study: Business Management & OrganizationDiscussion Leader: Don Minges, MBADate: Friday, May 24, 11:00 amDescription: You may know people who believe, "Good is never good enough." They are sharp, driven, push themselves, have lofty standards, and may focus on the negative. They wear themselves out and others as well. Could they be a perfectionist? Perhaps we have some of these tendencies. We will discuss perfectionists from several perspectives and how to harness their skills to enhance results. Perfectionism is a mindset, not a disease. Based on research and proven methods, we will review tactics that may help perfectionists learn how to transform their behaviors. If you know at least one perfectionist, this session will significantly help you and them.
