Testimonials

“The Audit Committee Index® report identified an area of disparity and created and enabled discussion by the board members in an area that would have otherwise not been raised.  We intend to do this again next year.  It was really a wonderful tool for us”

- Vern LaForti, CFO, Overland Storage

In today’s uncertain climate, FEI members and other senior financial executives may wonder whether they should serve on a board of directors, and whether they should be identified as “the financial expert.”
