Financial managers play a key role in every organisation, whether it is using financial skills to make decisions that affect stakeholder value, utilising accounting information to make strategic decisions or closely assessing key performance drivers.

USPOULTRY’s 2015 Financial Management Seminar will take a look at current economic factors and will assist financial managers in staying abreast of future challenges.

“Economic indicators provide financial managers predictive value in terms of future expectations.

"This year’s program offers a wide range of presentations discussing these key indicators, including a global market overview, a tax update, an economic forecast and an analyst’s perspective,” remarked program committee chairman, Charlie Singleton.

Other topics include a top management perspective of poultry financial management, customer expectations, cyber security, and the legal environment of the poultry industry.

A series of small group breakout sessions will also address topics, such as mobile technology, recruiting and retention, live production accounting and processing accounting.

USPOULTRY is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors. Up to 20.5 CPE credits may be awarded to seminar attendees.
