Use Critical Thinking Skills to Boost Your Impact
March 22, 2019 9 am CST
No skill is more important in business today than the ability to understand, analyze, and act on information effectively and responsibly. Finance professionals who are also savvy, sharp critical thinkers can cut through ambiguity and information overload to quickly zero in on what is really important. This session covers cognitive techniques and critical thinking tools to enhance decision-making under pressure and strengthen your impact. Years of leadership experience do not automatically provide critical thinking skills! Since even highly experienced business leaders sometimes make horrible decisions that severely damage themselves and their organizations, something more than experience must be necessary. We'll use real-life examples to examine why incompetence, bad character, or low intelligence generally aren't to blame when leaders and organizations blunder. We'll learn how finance and accounting professionals can become better critical thinkers and decision-making assets to their organization.
Pricing for Profitability: How Finance Can Save The Bottom Line
March 29, 2019 9 am CST
Much has been written recently about value pricing with some authors implying that understanding your product's value is the most important and perhaps only requirement for superior profitability. While every company should understand product value, understanding cost, competition, and capacity utilization are far more important for most organizations.
Left unchecked to "value price" products, incentive programs usually motivate sales personnel to set price at the lowest allowable number. Finance can influence profit in a big way by getting involved in pricing. This session will show you how.
