The Darden Strategic CFO Roundtable was an invitation-only peer-to-peer forum for leading chief financial officers in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. The roundtable members discuss, debate and share best practices surrounding the strategic role of the CFO. Representing a collective 300+ years of strategic, financial and leadership experience, the roundtable members share their views on the challenges and opportunities facing their companies and themselves. They discuss the lessons learned from triumphs and trials that led to their becoming recognized as strategic CFOs.

Founded in 2008 by Jane-Scott Cantus of The ILEX Group, the Strategic CFO Roundtable, with invited facilitator Darden Professor Kenneth M. Eades, became a branded initiative of the Institute for Business in Society at the Darden School of Business of the University of Virginia in 2013 and was retired in 2018.  Insights were shared in Views from the C-Suite.  

New insights gathered from new and reunion Strategic CFO Roundtables will be published as available.
