Program Description
Landing a new role as a Chief Financial Officer (or other senior executive) is about being able to sell yourself as a solution - a solution to a particular problem or situation that the company is grappling with. But what are these situations? Effective interviews require that you understand these situations, especially what's in the CEO's mind. What is he/she looking for in the person who is offered the CFO job.
Join us for this unique moderated panel discussion lead by several CEOs who will reveal some of the things that they consider to be essential in the person they hire to be at the top of their financial organization. Some of the personal characteristics, professional experiences and skills may surprise you. Come join us for this sure-to-be-interesting event on Tuesday.
