FEI Austin - March 2025 Breakfast Meeting - "Shaping Tomorrow: Finance Leaders on Key Strategic Priorities"

FEI Austin is excited to announce our March breakfast event featuring Giannine Cohoon, Senior Vice President of Business Development at Robert Half, and Chris Wright, Managing Director at Protiviti. The big picture: A look at the top priorities for finance leaders — among them, security and privacy of data, financial and strategic planning and analysis, and enhanced data analytics — reveals a tale of transformation for CFOs and other finance leaders whose responsibilities continue to widen. Join Robert Half and Protiviti as they address the growing list of priorities faced by both leaders and professionals. In this session, we explore the results of Protiviti’s 2024 Global Finance Trends Survey and Robert Half’s 2025 Salary Guide and offer practical takeaways for finance leaders to address these challenges and how to identify technology and talent skills gaps for achieving short- and long-term business objectives. 
Join us on Tuesday, March 25, at Maggiano's Little Italy (Domain) in the North Ballroom as Giannine and Chris present the "Shaping Tomorrow: Finance Leaders on Key Strategic Priorities." Be sure to register for this event before the registration deadline to save your seat!
