SESSION 1: Unlocking the Magic: The Secret to Creating Teams that Flourish

As humans, we naturally want to be around people who understand us - our dreams, needs, desires and fears. When we find people who get us at work, we bring more of ourselves to what we do, unleash our potential, and truly thrive. This is where the magic happens!

During this session, we will explore what it means to lead your team in this powerful way. Plus, you will walk away with some practical ideas for how to make the magic happen.


SESSION 2: Defining Business Partnering

In today’s volatile, uncertain and complex economic environment, business leaders are increasingly looking to their finance functions to provide information, which is critical for strategic decision-making. Success requires that finance functions develop the skill sets and mindsets needed to partner with their businesses and move up the curve from providing hindsight to providing insight that creates value.

Attend this session to learn about some of today’s best practices in finance business partnering and how emerging technologies will change the future of finance.
