CFOs are … worried!

I read an article this morning about CFOs … on one hand cautiously optimistic about the economy and on the other, worried about their companies.

Now, more than ever before, a career survival plan is a necessity. Just like finance executives create 3 to 5-year plans for their companies, they need a 3 to 5-year plan for their career. Being proactive is the difference between reacting in desperation and responding from a position of power to the right opportunities on your terms and within your time frame.
