In the 1976 Academy Award-winning best picture, "Network", Peter Finch played a news anchor who was so upset with world events that he delivers a TV speech with the famous line "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore."More than four decades later, when we learn of foolish business decisions leading to a crisis, we probably feel the same way.Today we see case after case of short-term profits emphasized over long-term sustainability. This session explains how financial professionals can help protect and defend our organizations and clients from self-inflicted disasters.
