CFO Council

The CFO Council aims to aid the J. Mack Robinson College of Business in carrying out its vision of becoming the leading college in financial education and professional development for undergraduate and graduate students and business executives.
The CFO Council builds a bridge between academia and industry that fosters strong relationships with leading Greater Atlanta businesses and other organizations. The group provides an ongoing forum for ideas, suggested direction and support of the college in areas that relate to finance, accounting and business.
Activities
The CFO Council supports all areas where the college finds it desirable and beneficial to tap into the creative thinking and support of key industry CFOs (for example, for advisory boards, mentoring of students, lecturing, programmatic insights, student recruitment, career planning and opportunities, relationship networking, and altruistic support).
