It is virtually impossible to pick up the daily newspaper and not find an article on some type of fraudulent event. In the wake of the “Era of Fraud, Waste and Excess,” one might suspect that potential fraudsters would think twice before committing illegal acts. However, just the opposite seems to be the case. Is there really more fraud or is there simply more fraud awareness? The harsh reality is that it is a little bit of each. Not only has fraud worldwide reached a level of over $7.0 billion in lost revenue but savvy C-level executives now realize that it could happen to their companies—very easily. When you put these facts together, it adds up to a completely new era of vigilance.

Strategic CFO is a four-part series that answers the “why” and “direction” our companies take and our role in thinking about this big picture to infuse into our everyday lives. Strategic CFO – Strategic Financial Communications Financial professionals are expected to do more than report numbers-they must explain them in ways others understand and trust. This session focuses on improving financial communication by addressing financial literacy gaps, simplifying complex accounting concepts, and building compelling narratives around data. Participants will learn how to use stories, visuals, and language effectively to communicate strategy, performance, and risk. Through examples and interactive discussion, this session helps CPAs and CFOs become clearer, more confident communicators in both live and virtual environments. Also, some video clips will be used to add to the learning materials and research. Don't worry, they are pretty entertaining. Strategic CFO – Strategic Cash Management Cash is the lifeblood of every organization, yet many leaders struggle to explain, manage, and plan for it effectively. This session focuses on strategic cash management, capital structure decisions, and financing options available to organizations at different stages of growth. Participants will explore how CFOs balance today's cash needs with long-term strategy, evaluate debt and equity decisions, and communicate cash flow concepts to non-financial stakeholders. The session emphasizes practical frameworks, real-world examples, and modeling approaches that support better cash decisions. A few negotiation videos will be displayed to bring humor and effectiveness to the key points. Strategic CFO – Strategic Risk Management Risk management is no longer a compliance exercise-it is a core strategic responsibility of today's CFO and CPA. This session demystifies Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) by walking through the COSO framework in clear, practical terms. Participants will learn how risk integrates with strategy and performance, how organizations identify and assess risk, and how leaders respond to uncertainty in a disciplined way. Using examples, polling, and case discussions, this session equips financial professionals to communicate risk effectively and help organizations protect and create value. Some funny video clips will be used to focus on the learning material. Strategic CFO – Developing Strategy and the Why Effective CFOs and CPAs play a critical role in shaping and executing organizational strategy. This session focuses on how strategy is developed, why many strategic plans fail, and how finance leaders can help organizations create focus in an increasingly complex and fast-changing environment. Participants will explore competitive advantage, the use of financial and non-financial metrics, and the importance of aligning strategy with mission, culture, and resources. Through discussion and real-world case examples, attendees will gain practical tools to evaluate, measure, and support successful strategies across for-profit and nonprofit organizations. Use of some video reels will add levity to some of the key points.

How should internal auditors and finance team leaders use Agentic AI? What are the dos and do nots? When deployed properly AI is wonderful. Can AI help with SOX testing? We review how to avoid the common mistakes that eliminate the benefits that AI can provide. Join us to learn about those expensive lessons. Agentic AI (‘Artificial Intelligence’) is rapidly being deployed by leading audit, compliance, and finance teams. While AI agents are not yet replacing all of today’s knowledge workers like auditors, accountants, and IT security professionals, the knowledge workers that effectively use Agentic AI may soon be replacing those knowledge workers who do not use these tools to drive high quality business growth and scale. AI is moving beyond automation to become a true teammate, especially in the governance, risk, and compliance processes. This session will show how supervised AI agents can work alongside accountants, auditors and IT security professionals to enhance efficiency, consistency, and assurance quality. Of critical importance is training and supervision so that the AI agents accomplish their testing to mee the intended quality standards. Attendees will leave with a practical view of how AI-powered testing can be applied to both internal and external assurance. Be prepared and learn from others.

Failure to Detect Fraud and the Reasons Why (2 hours)

Member Price: $89

SAS 122, AU 240, Consideration of Fraud in A Financial Audit state that auditors fail to detect fraud for two reasons. One, they haven’t been trained to look for it and two, they don’t know what it looks like. I would like to add a third reason: they don’t want to find fraud because it causes problems for the audit. This session is designed to familiarize auditors with the many faces of fraud; where and how to look for them and what to do if you think you have found fraud. Not everyone is able to recognize fraud. During this program, the attributes a fraud auditor (frauditor) will be discussed. In order to recognize fraud, an auditor must understand their client’s operation. What is an indicator in one client’s operation may be business as usual in another, and you have to know the difference. After viewing this program, chances are you will never look at your client the same way! YELLOW BOOK: Qualifies for Yellow Book CPE based on your unique audited entity.
