CFO Studio Magazine - CFO Innovation Award Winners

WINNER 16 WWW.CFOSTUDIO.COM 2nd QUARTER 2015 CFO Success Award Finance Department John Roberts Chief Financial and Administrative Officer AdvantEdge Healthcare Solutions “Is disorder an intrinsic part of innovation that finance executives must embrace in order to prosper? I’m not sure I’d agree, but I will say this: I do believe that disorder can be a short-term episodic event, and in a short burst, it’s important to creativity, in order to move things forward. Finance executives must create a certain amount of disorder to begin thinking creatively. Disorder opens up creative thinking and allows people to think about ‘how do we juice things differently? how do we make change? how do we not fear?’ — and then to really challenge old ways of thinking. However, I do believe that at some point, order must follow so as to drive prosperity.” Finalists for CFO Success Award — Finance Department • Toby Dingemans, Chief Financial Officer, Genesis Media • Kevin Lenahan, Chief Financial Officer, Atlantic Health Systems • Judi Pulig, Chief Financial Officer, Yorktel
