Elevate Your Leadership Communication Strategies: Benefits of the CFO, Audit Committee Chair, and Auditor relationship

Wharton CFO Network (WhCFO)
Hosted by Deloitte

 
**This event has been postponed. A new date will be announced soon.**
 
CFOs and Audit Committee Chairs can each play a critical role in the success of their Company.  CFOs need to manage several competing priorities to create value. Audit Committee Chairs are typically seasoned executives, and can be strong resources for the CFOs in their efforts. And, while auditors have traditionally been perceived simply as independent outsiders who render opinions on the financial statements, they are often overlooked as a key relationship in the CFO’s repertoire.  In fact, auditors can be a key resource to a CFO’s organization and ensure a well-operated business. This is why the relationship between these three is becoming an increasingly important key to success.

The value of having clear and comprehensive communications between the CFO, Audit Committee Chair, and auditor can help move individuals from being “number two” to “number one” in their finance organization.

Please join us and hear from a CFO, an Audit Committee Chair, and an Auditor, as they discuss their personal experiences and the importance of the relationship and communication between all three parties.
