Week 1: CFO Series: Measuring and Reporting
CPE: 2
Field of Study: Accounting
Discussion Leader: Don Minges, MBA
Date: Friday, December 06, 11:00 am
Description: ESG broadly covers many of the non-financial issues every organization faces. The use of ESG as a term however conjures images to many of tree-huggers protecting rare species at the expense of jobs and growth, requirements that well-qualified candidates are not hired or passed over for promotion because they do not meet "diversity standards" and that companies are constrained by restrictive laws and regulations from conducting their business.
ESG is not about limiting growth or profitability. It is about measuring non-financial information and using that information to make companies more efficient and more profitable.
ESG is not a fad that will go away but a method of viewing our organizations so that they can be better and more profitable.
Week 2: CFO Series: Bridging the Gap with Marketing Mgt: the Four Ps
CPE: 2
Field of Study: Business Management & Organization
Discussion Leader: Brian Maturi, MBA, FCA
Date: Friday, December 13, 11:00 am
Description:
What should we know about marketing and what are the four 'P's of marketing? Many financial leaders are not sufficiently knowledgeable about the marketing function, marketing management, and measuring marketing results. When we know more, both functions can work collaboratively to help drive a superior bottom line. We can more accurately measure success, for example, in order to approve a cost-effective strategy to maintain and grow the business organically. We will discuss proven techniques to help your organization grow and thrive. Finance and marketing can and should help each other
Week 3: CFO Series: Accepting Perfectionists: Understand & Adapting

Date: Friday, December 20, 11:00 am
Description: 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.
