Major subjects

  • Week 1: CFO Series: Inventory Accounting: GAAP, Software, Variances | CPE: 2 | Field of Study: Accounting | Discussion Leader: Various | Date: 5/5/2023 | Description: Proper inventory accounting is deceptively complicated. Do you desire accuracy? Do you desire to become more thorough in inventory accounting, or need to refresh and strengthen your inventory accounting skills? This session helps you get there quickly, and focuses on the crucial components of inventory GAAP, inventory software, and methods for dealing with variances.
  • Week 2: CFO Series: Cybersecurity for the CFO: Ransomware and Beyond | CPE: 2 | Field of Study: Information Technology | Discussion Leader: Tracy Cooper, CPA | Date: 5/12/2023 | Description: Cyber-crime has increased by over 500% since the start of the pandemic. Many financial leaders are tasked with overseeing computer security, which is typically outsourced. Recall the maxim, trust but verify. Why do we not inspect those we pay to manage our cybersecurity? How many backup plans should we have? Verizon reports that 44% of all data breaches by companies with less than 1,000 employees were caused by malicious employees. How do you test for security? Is insurance enough? What is the 'worst thing that could happen' and how do you prepare for it? We will review a multi-step plan on how to enhance your data integrity. Be prepared, because at the end of day, you will be held accountable and responsible for cybersecurity.
  • Week 3: CFO Series: Big Picture Megatrends, Big Data, Dynamic Change | CPE: 2 | Field of Study: Economics | Discussion Leader: Robert Mims, CPA | Date: 5/19/2023 | Description: It is easy for us to get caught up in our work, but it is better to examine the 'big picture' by studying the outside factors that impact our business beyond our internal processes and day to day responsibilities. We are sometimes so busy with our tasks that we miss new developments until they have a profound impact on us and the organization. This session is designed to review many of these current trends, while thinking and discussing how these trends can impact our organizations and us. This is a fun and lively session that is intended to be interactive with participants either live, virtual or both. Our world is changing more than many realize.
  • Week 4: CFO Series: Get the Most When Selling a Business: Tactics | CPE: 2 | Field of Study: Finance | Discussion Leader: Don Minges, MBA | Date: 5/26/2023 | Description: Every business will be sold eventually. When you have built a great business and decide to move on, you want the most you can get for that terrific organization! What are the steps to take to maximize the value realized? What do buyers really want? What are the three levers to achieve maximum value? If you want top dollar, preparing to sell takes years of planning. This course helps CEOs, entrepreneurs, CFOs, Board members, controllers, and their advisors prepare for a successful sale of the organization to maximize shareholder value. We will outline the process to get the most bang for the buck. Proper exit planning demands planning and time.
