Strategic planning in uncertainty7. Financial literacy about business8. Increasing government regulations9. IT security / privacy10. Multi-tasking and increasing workload
What can MACPA do to help?The group identified areas that MACPA could help CFOs, controllers and financial professionals deal with the pressing issues.
One major idea was to have quarterly roundtables focused on one of these main issues with a facilitated discussion afterwards. Most of the key issues were already being dealt with by MACPA.
The group emphasized the importance of continued advocacy at the federal, state, and state board areas.
Refelctions
There is a certain felling of relief when you know that you are facing the same issues as others in your Profession. That was definitely the feeling at the end of this roundtable. It was almost therapeutic having engaging discussions with other financial professionals.
