Highlights
Week 1: CFO Series-Profitable Pricing
CPE: 2
Field of Study: Accounting
Discussion Leader: John L. Daly, MBA, CPA, CMA, CPIM Executive Education, Inc.
Date: 02/04/22
Description: Three things can happen in pricing, and two of them are bad. Overpriced products are a missed opportunity, whereas underpriced products give away your products at a loss. When sales and accounting personnel fail to work together, the company risks becoming its industry's "dumb" competitor. Accountants involved in pricing can help the company understand the difference between "dog" and "gravy" opportunities with knowledge that directly translates into an improved profitability. You will leave this session understanding why the company with the best cost information wins!
Week 2: CFO Series-Dealing with Problem Employees: What Works?

Field of Study: Business Management & Organization
Discussion Leader: Don Minges, MBA The Knowledge Institute

Description: What Works? A team member is not performing satisfactorily. You've tried several corrective actions; none worked. We must dig to determine the root causes. We will review a 15-step process to assess all the reasons why they are not performing, so you can reduce and hopefully eliminate performance issues. Proper planning is essential. If none of the fifty suggestions work, we will review how to part ways. The sooner you address the issues, the sooner the situation can improve. If you have had one employee problem, this session is for you!
