NEW TO ACECL!
CFO, CIO, AND HR COUNCILS
Modeled after the national ACEC councils and in response to suggestions for opportunities to engage non-engineering professionals in ACECL programming, ACECL is launching three councils: CFO, CIO and Human Resources.
Through the ACECL Councils employees with specific functional responsibilities can network with peers from other member firms.
The Councils will interact through conference calls, ACECL Facebook community groups and roundtable discussions at the annual ACECL Fall Conference. Each Council will develop their own discussion topics and pace of interaction. The Facebook Community Groups established through the ACECL Facebook page or like platform will provide for timely feedback and shared experiences not just from professional peers but from those engaged in the same business line. This will be an invaluable tool for your leadership team or yourself as a principal.
Principals are encouraged to share this opportunity with their key leadership team members so they can sign up. The greater the participation, the greater the return on this time investment.
CFO Council
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Council provides a framework for senior finance executives and financial thought leaders in the engineering industry to discuss their changing role — from financial management to company strategist. The CFO Council will provide opportunities to exchange best practices, network with peers from around the state, and get the insights and ideas to keep your firm successful in these challenging economic times.
CIO Council
The ACECL CIO Council will be all about sharing best practices and innovations. The Council will provide a framework for the "thought leaders" in the engineering industry to discuss market trends and specific IT leadership challenges and solutions with their industry counterparts.
Human Resources Council
Through ACECL’s Human Resources Council, HR professionals will be connected to a network of their peers in the engineering business. Professionals share best practices, discuss problems and solutions, gain valuable insights into industry trends, and network with each other.
