The CNBC CFO Council offers timely and topical programming, content, and insights that help CFOs today, as they’re expected, more than ever before, to lead new areas in addition to the core finance function and organization– managing not just shareholders, but other stakeholders, including employees and customers; assessing and deciding on the best places to invest in technological innovation; and in overseeing risk mitigation like new cybersecurity policies and procedures, procurement, real estate, and more.  CFOs are increasingly coming from operational and strategy backgrounds instead of the traditional accounting path. And as shareholder activism, digital transformation, and cybersecurity become increasingly crucial challenges facing firms, CFOs are being tapped to lead and address these issues– making critical decisions on how to invest in the future – more than ever. CNBC’s team of journalists has direct relationships with CFOs, which means we understand the nuances of what these leaders are experiencing, and can uniquely provide insightful content, programming, and peer connections to help equip CFOs with the tools and resources they need to excel in their roles, and support their organizations and help them thrive.
