07-14-2015 Asset Management – For Your Career
Monday, July 14, 2014
Speaker:
Bill McGinnis, CFA
Exponential Careers
Chair: David Bradley, CFA
As investment professionals, we go to great lengths to ensure the safety and growth of client assets. We reinforce with clients the importance of having a plan for the future. We don’t ask what return they want over the next 12 months, but rather over their lives.
Interestingly, our approach to our careers tends to be quite the opposite. We tend to be fairly short-term focused, don’t really have a plan, and don’t pay nearly as much attention to the growth of our career as we do the growth of our portfolios.
Bill McGinnis is a CFA charterholder with over 25 years of experience in the investments world. He’ll talk about why your career is an asset that is even more important than your portfolio. He’ll guide us through taking more of a portfolio approach to your career and provide practical guidance for planning and growing your career. Whether you’d like to accelerate growth in a postion you’re happy with or possibly a career change may be in your future, this presentation will provide useful advice and information for you to move forward.
This presentation will also be useful to people who currently manage others or plan to in the future. Clearly the foundation to a great career is a great company and a great boss. Learn what it takes to be that boss.
