Description

Risk is everywhere, but which risks matter? In the dynamic landscape of modern business, the role of a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) extends far beyond financial management; it encompasses navigating an array of external and internal risks that can impact organizational performance and sustainability. This seminar will empower professionals with the foresight and practical tools needed to understand, anticipate, and mitigate both external and internal risks. We must be aware and anticipate.
