SUMMARY:THE FENG: What should the CFO be doing moving forward - in light of past year events
LOCATION:What should the CFO be doing moving forward - in light of past year events\r\nSpeaker: David Bizzaro of Bridgepoint Consulting in Denver.\r\n \r\n\r\nYou will be sent a Zoom invite after you register on the FENG website
DESCRIPTION:2020 threw a drop-off-the-table curveball at everyone!\r\n \r\nIt started with the alarming withdrawal of the UK from the European Union, economic uncertainty, negative oil prices, political anxiety,\r\nand the suffocating impact of the pandemic. It’s been nothing short of a whirlwind. \r\n \r\nWe have organized this meeting as a discussion group. We will discuss each topic in depth and then move on to the next one.\r\n \r\nThe discussion will be around the following premise:\r\nAs a result of last year’s circumstances, we’ve seen companies become incredibly reactive.\r\nWhile this is sometimes necessary, we’d like to discuss the shift of that mentality to a more proactive approach.\r\nHistorically we’ve seen companies operating from a long-term, strategic, outlook allowing for stable growth; however, this WAS normal in a world where normal is no more. \r\nOn  Feb 17h, we’re going to take the CFO position and what he or she should be thinking about moving forward.\r\nHow should CFOs assess the events of 2020 and make sense of them? What should CFOs be focusing on for 2021?\r\nThe crisis has obviously forced companies to re-evaluate how they do business and adapt to this new norm.\r\nWe’ve seen some do so more graciously than others, embracing an agile mindset and coming out with their heads above water.\r\nAt the meeting, we’ll expand on the key areas where CFOs should focus their attention and how they can lead their teams to become more agile organizations.\r\nThe 6 key areas we will cover are:\r\nManaging Your Workforce\r\nEvaluating Supply Chain and Working Capital Management\r\nReal Estate and CAPEX Management\r\nTechnology\r\nCapital Structure\r\nCompetitive Landscape\r\n \r\nThe meeting will be facilitated by myself and David Bizzaro of Bridgepoint Consulting in Denver.\r\n \r\nRemember, this is a discussion group…your thoughts and ideas are important!
