Controllers Facing High Demand and Heavy Competition for Financial Talent
Portland, Maine (PRWEB) August 13, 2013 -- The Institute of Finance & Management (IOFM), a leading resource for controllers, has announced that the Third Annual Controller’s Summit will feature “Emerging Trends and Issues in Compensation for Financial Executives,” a session led by Ken Troy, Compensation & Benefits Consulting Director – Southern California Practice Leader, Grant Thornton LLP.
With compensation increasingly being viewed by CFOs and controllers as the key to recruiting and retaining financial executives and other top professionals, the war for financial talent and issues effecting executive compensation will be explored.

The Controller’s Summit takes place at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, October 20-22; the session will be held the afternoon of October 21.
The event’s keynote presentation, “The Evolving Role of the Finance Executive: How Controllers Can Help Support their CFOs and the Skills Controllers Need to become CFOs,” will be given by Myles Corson, Markets Leader, Financial Accounting Services, Ernst & Young.
Other important topics on the agenda include:
