On September 4th, members of the Florida CFO Group joined business leaders from across Tampa Bay at Embarc Collective for an evening of forward-thinking conversation, and a bit of nostalgic fun.
Hosted by Fractio and held at Embarc’s ReliaQuest Auditorium, the event, Back to the Future of Work: Why Time-Based Pricing is History, brought together professionals across finance, HR, tech, and business strategy to explore a bold question: Is time still the best measure of value in an AI-driven economy?
Florida CFO Group proudly sponsored the event, with partners Steven W. Weldon, Mirtha Fonte, Joseph Price, and Jim Dietz in attendance to support fellow partner Phil Nahajewski, who contributed his insights as a panelist. The conversation, moderated by Fatin Kwasny, included perspectives from HR strategist Wendy Sellers, accordionist and technologist Joey de Villa, CTO Nicolas Genest, and product expert Christina Adames.
The discussion focused on how technology, particularly AI, is transforming the way organizations create, measure, and price value. The traditional time-for-dollars model is being challenged by more dynamic, outcome-based approaches, something the CFO Group is well positioned to help businesses navigate with strategic financial leadership.
This event coupled insightful commentary with a creative atmosphere, think breakfast-for-dinner catering and Back to the Future trivia! More importantly, it sparked authentic conversations around human capital, automation, and the shifting landscape of professional services.
As business models evolve, so must the way we think about value, and the Florida CFO Group is proud to be part of that conversation.
