"Really good CFOs are able to COMMUNICATE, with people who are not financial experts"

What does it take to be a CFO? How do you get that type of role? What does it mean to work at Board level? And how do you make the right kind of impact once you get there? Chicago-based Eileen Kamerick is a Board member of several listed companies as well as a trusted confidante to CEOs and Directors in Advisory and CFO roles. She shares some exclusive insights into her forthcoming Finance Track session at ENGAGE 2020.

Navigating the path to becoming a Chartered Global Management Accountant involves more than just technical knowledge-it demands leadership. FLP, the Finance Leadership Podcast, from AICPA & CIMA, is here for that journey. Evolving from the Go Beyond Disruption show in late 2022, this podcast focuses squarely on the Finance Leadership Programme, the innovative route to the CGMA designation. Each episode cuts through the noise to deliver timely, actionable insights and essential updates directly related to the FLP pathway. You’ll hear discussions that help bridge the gap between academic learning and the practical, strategic mindset required of modern finance leaders. Whether you're actively enrolled in the programme or considering it, the conversations here are designed to clarify the process, tackle challenges, and explore what it truly means to lead in finance today. Tune in for a resource that feels less like a formal lecture and more like a regular check-in with experts who understand exactly what you're working toward.
