BETHESDA, MARYLAND –
January 31, 2012 – The Association for Financial Professionals (AFP), the
professional society for treasury and finance, is pleased to announce the
appointment of Robert C. “Bob” Greene to Director of Strategic Solutions.
In his new role, Bob will work with global financial service providers and
corporate customers to satisfy their training and education needs.
“What differentiates
successful companies today is often the caliber of their finance staff,” said
Greene. “Effective training throughout
the finance team has become a strategic imperative. This is where AFP sets the
standard in education.”
Greene will work with
corporations and financial institutions to identify areas for knowledge and
skills enhancements, leveraging AFP’s deep information resources to help
companies reach their goals. This may
include the development of customized training over a broad range of topics,
including cash management, financial risk management, foreign exchange,
forecasting, money markets and short-term investing, as well as funding and
borrowing. He will work directly with companies to identify and deliver content
in the most cost effective way to meet the needs of geographically diverse
workforces.
Prior to joining AFP,
Greene owned a product development agency where his interest in international
commerce led to opportunities for commentary in print, radio and
television. He is a graduate of Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and State University and an active community leader,
residing in Virginia with his wife and five children.
