Research shows data-driven operations are more profitable, efficient and better places to work. But how do you go about making the move from gut-feel to fact-based decisions? Researcher and economist Ray Major shows how to leverage your business information and transform your company into a lean, mean (and more profitable) data-driven machine.

Keeping Your Customer's Data Safe
As IT functions continue their march toward service-oriented delivery models, the responsibility for data protection is becoming blurred. As evident from recent news stories, there are clear financial and reputational impacts when data is compromised or stolen. Industry and regulatory standards, such as HIPAA and PCI DSS, seek to force service organizations to protect customer data. But, to be successful with protecting the customer data entrusted to your organization, you must go further and integrate a holistic approach into your organization. Join us to understand the current issues, risks, and approaches in this rapidly evolving field.

Don’t Be “That Executive” – Common Mistakes to Avoid When Implementing Microsoft Dynamics AX
We’ve all heard stories about ERP implementations gone wrong; cases where a company can’t ship product or close its financial reports because its ERP implementation has failed.

This session will share the dos and don’ts of a good implementation from an executive perspective. Don’t miss this informative session. Your organization’s future might very well depend on it!

Is Your Company Overdosing on BI?
As CFOs, we love business intelligence. Performance metrics are like happy pills for us - they trigger endorphins that make us happy when we start crunching and analyzing. But how much focus on business performance is too much? In a recent study of 2,300 companies only 10 were able to grow their net income by 5% each year for 10 years. The best way to achieve high performance today, and improve tomorrow, is by simultaneously concentrating on both performance and organizational health. Join us to hear what these companies are doing right, and how you can get the most from your BI by supplementing it with an organizational health regimen.
