While many financial services professionals advise their clients on tax, investment, and life insurance issues, far fewer venture to help in the area of property and casualty insurance. Auto and homeowners policies are mandatory products that everyone generally needs - yet they are also complex products. This complexity raises questions in clients' minds: Are all my belongings covered under my policy? Do I have to adjust my policy if I want to let my neighbor borrow my car? Do I need an additional policy if I want to work as a rideshare driver? And will my premium go up when I move? In this course, we will cover the fundamentals of auto and homeowners' policies. We will touch on these questions, explore basic coverages, and offer some guidance on what practitioners should cover with their clients in this area, so you can offer guidance and give them the peace of mind they need. This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.

Some customers are unprofitable from an economic or time perspective – but many organizations do not differentiate or know the difference. When an organization has a unique, well-differentiated service or product, understanding value from the customer’s perspective becomes a crucial factor in profitable pricing. We must take the time to fully understand what our customers value - from the customer’s point of view. What is value? Why do brand, value, and customer focus matter? Developing a deep understanding of our customers is vital. Our most important customer might be someone we have not yet recognized. Understanding both external clients and internal stakeholders - including the evolving role of the finance department, is critical to long-term success. Using humorous video clips, memes, and vetted research, your understanding of customer bases will improve.

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 This session explores the critical transition from strategy to performance while challenging outdated planning models and myths.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 do not 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 will dive into the reasons strategy fails, uncover the practical tools for bridging the planning-performance gap, and explore how strong financial integration enables strategy to succeed. We review insight into what works—and what must be stopped immediately. The author uses CocaCola as a baseline to communicate elements of strategy and incorporates funny videos to highlight key points.
