Bob McCloskey, a Sales Account Manager, attended the American Strategic Management Institute Seminar series “Budgeting, Planning, and Forecasting Organizational Performance” September 21-22 in Chicago, IL. The presentation themes were Measures, Metrics, & Methodologies for Enhanced Financial Management.
