FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Keith McAslan Nominated for 2010 CFO of the Year

Introduction:

Many CEO’s and small/medium business owners do not have a Board of Advisors, or Board of Directors to help hold them accountable and direct the business towards the ultimate goal of monetization with an exit strategy. If the business cannot afford a full time CFO, a part time CFO with a broad based business experience can be that ‘Trusted Advisor’. Ideally the CFO who is the ‘Trusted Advisor’ not only has financial experience, but operating experience as well to provide global insight to issues facing the business.

The Value Add:

The CFO who becomes the ‘Trusted Advisory’ to the CEO delivers results-driven, professional counsel and solutions for complex situations. The key benefits for the CEO and the organization having a ‘Trusted Advisor’ include:

That's true, but more effective ways exist to reduce the number of hats you wear so you can focus on growing the right things for your business.

Herndon, VA -- January 21, 2009 – According to new research announced today, the segment of the U.S. workforce that includes contract talent, such as independent contractors, freelancers, and independent consultants, is growing at more than twice the rate of traditional employment.

The study, released today by HCI and industry partners, examines the use of contract talent in U.S. organizations. Gene Zaino, President & CEO of MVO Partners, noted, “As the workforce changes to reflect the emerging knowledge economy, organizations increasingly rely on contract talent – independent contractors, freelancers, and project-based consultants -- to augment and even replace their traditional workforce.”

The Contract Talent Research Practice Area at HCI, which produced the study, was formed to examine the use of contract talent and provide strategic thought leadership.
