The role of the Chief Finance Officer is evolving as fast as the world is changing. The CFO that has access to external leading business drivers and visibility to performance risks ahead of the competition can act more quickly and effectively than the competition with this information. They can better inform shareholders and board members and can assure them of bold strategic moves for long-term profitability vs short-term gains.

In this webinar, John Granato, CFO of Tradesmen International and former CFO of The Andersen's Inc., and Patrick Slattery, founder and managing director of Canopach, a CFO advisory firm, will discuss their experience evolving the finance department to be more predictive.
