CFO Series: Execute Your Strategy: Turn Plans into Results (2 hours) [NT]

-

Online

2.0 Credits

Member Price: $89

Organizations that execute a wise strategy succeed; others are executed in the market. Many organizations invest significant time in strategic planning but fall short when it comes to execution. According to McKinsey, most fail to properly execute their strategy. This session explores the critical transition from strategy to performance while challenging outdated planning models and myths. We often don't think of strategy in the same context of longer-term organizational projects, like ERP transitions or risk management. Why should you consider "killing" your current plan and building a new plan centered around financial performance? We'll dive into the reasons strategies fail, uncover the practical tools for bridging the planning-performance gap, and explore how strong financial integration enables strategy to succeed. We will review what works and what must be stopped immediately.

Surgent's Lessons Learned from Successful Companies (2 hours) [NT]

Member Price: $99

Why do some companies fail while others grow and succeed for generations? Common perceptions often attribute organizational success to great leadership, timing, or unique ideas. Although these traits certainly play a role in helping companies grow, research shows that corporate success often hinges on whether a company is value driven. Such companies have core ideologies that drive almost every major decision. In this course, we look at empirical data on why some companies succeed while others fail. By looking at companies that were created prior to 1950 (e.g., Disney, Marriott, or 3M), we can understand why certain organizations have been able to grow and achieve exceptional success through many different eras in the American economy. The lessons learned from these visionary companies can be broadly applied to organizations of all sizes, including accounting and financial service firms.

Most leadership development focuses on a single direction within the organizational hierarchy: downstream to subordinates. While it is important to be a good boss, leadership is much more than that. The best leaders learn to lead well in all directions. They lead upward to superiors and across among peers throughout the organization. And it all starts with self-leadership. This often overlooked or misunderstood leadership principle is essential to build a thriving and productive culture. This topic is based on Jon’s book, Mission-Critical Leadership: How Smart Managers Lead Well in All Directions.
