BOSTON, May 1, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The CFO Leadership Council (CFOLC), a
professional association for senior finance leaders ready to
supercharge their careers and business growth, proudly
announces new session in the much-anticipated Spring 2024 CFO
Leadership Conference. This enlightening event is set to take place
from June 4th to 6th at the Westin
Boston Seaport District.
"When Travelers spoke at our leadership
conference last fall, it was one of the highest-rated presentations
we have hosted over our sixteen conferences. We are thrilled to be
partnering with them again this year." - Jack McCullough, President and Founder, The CFO
Leadership Council
The new session titled "Preparing for Strategic Action:
Navigating Employee Risks from Poor Hiring Decisions to Lawsuits"
will be presented by industry luminaries Peter Cappelli, George W. Taylor Professor of
Management at The Wharton School and bestselling author of "Our
Least Important Asset," and Keith
Andersen, Vice President of Claim General Liability at
Travelers Insurance.
Andersen, an authority in Claim General Liability at Travelers
Insurance, will delve into the profound impact of nuclear verdicts
on US businesses. He underscores the importance of humanizing
companies and addresses the social trends contributing to these
verdicts, urging proactive measures. This session covers pivotal
insights, including the exponential rise of corporate nuclear
verdicts from almost $5 billion in
2020 to over $18 billion in 2022, and
the intensifying aggression of the plaintiffs' bar. It underscores
the indispensable role CFOs play in grasping and mitigating
emerging risks, especially concerning the workforce.
Professor Cappelli is the New York
Times best-selling author of "Our Least Important Asset Why
the Relentless Focus on Finance and Accounting Is Bad for Business
and Employee" Peter's groundbreaking insights shed light on how
short-term shareholder value pursuits can compromise workforce
quality and productivity. He discusses the pitfalls of viewing
employees as mere costs and explores the challenges associated with
hiring mistakes and the proliferation of contract workers.
According to Travelers' research, 67% of CFOs have sole
responsibility for purchasing decisions regarding property and
casualty insurance, underscoring the imperative to better
understand current and emerging risks, especially concerning the
workforce, as a pivotal aspect of strategic planning. Jack McCullough, President and Founder of the
CFO Leadership Council, remarked, "When Travelers spoke at our
leadership conference last fall, it was one of the highest-rated
presentations we have hosted over our sixteen conferences. We are
thrilled to be partnering with them again this year. Adding an
industry icon like Professor Cappelli is sure to deliver a unique
perspective to the 300 CFOs in attendance."
