This year’s theme is “Global Generation Workplace: Preparing Leaders.” Today more than ever, we need to encompass leadership and its importance in business. Without leadership all other business resources are ineffective. To ensure a competitive advantage, however, organizations must be on top of new developments in leadership theory and practice to create more effective working environments. The purpose of this one-day conference is to give you an opportunity to explore tools and resources needed to be an effective leader therefore building the essential skills needed to contribute to your organization’s goals. I encourage you to network and share your knowledge with others. Our speakers and various panel sessions will offer a unique perspective on what it takes to make a successful leader. I want to thank our sponsors who see the value in our Illinois Leadership Conference and continue to provide the support to keep us going. Please take note of our sponsors and support them when possible. I also want to acknowledge our speakers who have made a commitment to be here, as many have traveled long distances in order to participate and their support is greatly appreciated. Finally, I would like to thank the conference organizers and volunteers who worked diligently to bring you a top-notch conference.

  • Your Growth Is Our Business
    YOUR GROWTH IS OUR BUSINESS TRIENNIAL REPORT 2014-2016 MESSAGE Emilia DiMenco President and Chief Executive Officer A heartfelt thanks to you for your participation in our collective accomplishments over the past 30 years! Working together, we have helped some 78,000 women business owners become more economically empowered. Over the last few years, we have significantly enhanced the methods, channels, technology, programs, and support services for women business owners and other underserved communities - minorities and veterans - seeking to start and grow businesses. Investments you have made have allowed us to improve and expand the programs and services we provide, including our digital presence. We have enhanced our website and developed an online/on-demand learning portal. This has enabled our clients to work with us remotely and use applications to simplify the way they develop their business plans and financial forecasts, market their products and services, and gain access to resources that can help them grow their ventures. But in spite of the significant progress that we have been honored to help fuel, there is still plenty of work to be done. Women, minority, and veteran business owners remain underrepresented and are underserved for economic benefits. This limits their opportunities for growth and success, which, in turn, impacts all of us – entire communities and our country! So it is time for us to ‘double-down’ on our collective responsibility to do all we can so that women, minority, and veteran business owners are represented and have equal opportunities to participate in every facet and at every level of our economy.

  • Who Is Most Impacted by the New Lease Accounting Standards?
    Who is Most Impacted by the New Lease Accounting Standards? An Analysis of the Fortune 500’s Leasing Obligations What Do Corporations Lease? Many companies lease (rather than buy) much of the equipment and real estate they use to run their business. Many of the office buildings, warehouses, retail stores or manufacturing plants companies run their operations from are leased. Many of the forklifts, trucks, computers and data center equipment companies use to run their business is leased. Leasing has many benefits. Cash flow is one. Instead of outlaying $300,000 to buy five trucks today you can make a series of payments over the next four years to lease them. You can then deploy the cash you saved towards other investments that appreciate in value. Also, regular replacement of older technology with the latest and greatest technology increases productivity and profitability. Instead of buying a server to use in your data center for five years, you can lease the machines and get a new replacement every three years. If you can return the equipment on time, you are effectively outsourcing the monetization of the residual value in the equipment to an expert third-party, the leasing company. Another benefit of leasing is the accounting, specifically the way the leases are reported on financial statements such as annual reports (10-Ks). Today, under the current ASC 840 standard, leases are classified as capital leases or operating leases. Capital leases are reported on the balance sheet. Operating leases are disclosed in the footnotes of your financial statements as “off balance sheet” operating expenses and excluded from important financial ratios such as Return on Assets that investors use to judge a company’s performance.
