• Business Planning in an Uncertain Economy (half-day seminar)

  The external environment of a business is hard to predict: what will the economy do, how will technology change, what impact will new laws have on business? The solution is not to give up on planning, but to incorporate a flexible stance in the company’s strategic and operational plans. Dr. Bill Conerly helps participants draw upon their own expertise and experience to learn the keys to developing plans that will enhance growth while also protecting companies against downside risks. This half-day program works with small groups or with large audiences so long as the seating arrangement allows discussion within six-person groups.

  Dr. Bill Conerly is an expert on what business leaders should do right now to create a more profitable business future. Bill looks at the big changes we can expect in the next decade – demographics, globalization, finance, and technology – avoiding speculation as much as possible. Instead, he relies on business history, current trends and comprehensive research to make his forecasts. At every step he connects future scenarios with action plans that leaders should put in place now. Specifics are adjusted for the particular audience.

• What We Have Learned About Investing from Enron, Bernie Madoff and the Financial Crisis

Dr. Conerly has simple, actionable guidelines for sound investing. He has no financial interest in any of the advice that he gives, so he’s both knowledgeable and unbiased. Unlike most economists, his education included graduate level study of finance. He was awarded the Chartered Financial Analyst designation in 1999.
