It was a priviledge to have Rick Romanin FCPA share the story of Greyhound Australia. Rick came on board as CFO three years ago when the company was struggling against the strength of low cost airlines. In that time the business has changed their strategy and diversified. Now Greyhound Australia is in a much stronger position, although Rick admits there are always challenges.
Asic Chairman Tony D’Aloisio gave delegates an important update on regulation. He discussed the changes happening and what to expect. Also, Robert Gottliebsen, from the Eureka Report, shared his insights into current economic conditions in his own unique way.
Since Monday over 80 presenters have shared their knowledge and contributed to debate. CPA Congress has offered great opportunities for delegates to hear practical solutions for ‘The Way Forward’.
