We believe a workplace that is reflective and inclusive of the global communities in which they serve - different people, different cultures, and different perspectives – are greatly positioned to innovatively solve the challenging and complex issues facing clients and the evolving public interest. Attend ENGAGE DEI sessions where you will hear from DEI experts across all areas of focus to learn how your firm or organization can implement or improve initiatives to really move your business forward in this critical area.

Those attending the CPAFMA National Practice Management Conference will have the opportunity to attend DEI sessions where they will learn best practices from others in the profession, understand how to assess progress made in the DE&I space and benchmark your firm or company against other organizations also on the journey, walk-away with resources to help develop or grow your organization's DE&I initiatives and hear what the AICPA can do to help support these initiatives.

In addition, those attending the CPAFMA Conference will have the opportunity to cross-over and attend sessions in the Corporate Finance area of focus that will provide participants with proven strategies which they can implement immediately to transform their organization’s finance function and be ready for the “next-normal”. Participants will be able to join practitioners who will be leading sessions loaded with fresh thinking and practical application, as the Corporate Finance track provides those looking to cross-over sessions with the vision and the toolkit they need to drive their organization’s performance - through operations, data, talent and culture, to create value and deliver a sustainable and profitable finance function. 

This focus area will specifically teach participants how the Covid-19 pandemic has affected businesses financially and what steps can be taken to mitigate financial risk, how to coach your team through crisis and establish an environment where innovation and evolution can thrive, and will swap insight on the human impact and planning the organizational design of finance, post Covid-19.

There is something for everyone who manages a CPA firm at the CPAFMA National Practice Management Conference and ENGAGE 2021.
