CFO Conference 2009 - CFO in the Spotlight

Sheraton on the Park Sydney

There's never been a better or worse time to be a Chief Financial Officer. In many ways it's the best of times as the finance team is in the spotlight and what it does this year will position their company for the upturn - or could take them to the brink and beyond. But then on the other hand finance is exactly why so many companies are in a mess and stakeholders looking for someone to blame could do worse than turn a fierce glare in the direction of finance. This year the CFO is either the would-be hero or the much-maligned villain depending on how their company fares now and in 2010.

That's why we predict that 2009 will be a make or break year for CFO careers.

This year's CFO Conference will focus on the CFO In The Spotlight.
