Business Horror Stories
Business Horror Stories
Bad hires. Deals gone wrong. Cash flow scares. Compliance nightmares. Leadership decisions that still haunt you.
Every executive has at least one business horror story.
Join Fisher\SMB and NOW CFO for an evening where local C-suite leaders pull back the curtain and share the business moments that kept them up at night—and how they navigated through them to get to the other side.
Our panel of executives will share candid stories about unexpected challenges, tough calls, costly lessons, and moments when things simply didn’t go according to plan. More importantly, we’ll hear what they did next—how they adjusted, recovered, made difficult decisions, and ultimately turned those experiences into stronger businesses and better leadership.
No polished success stories. No sales pitches. Just real stories about what happens when business gets scary—and the lessons that come from making it through.
You’ll spend the evening surrounded by fellow executives, business owners, and senior leaders who understand the realities of leading a business and have likely survived a few horror stories of their own.
Come for the horror stories. Leave with the lessons that came after them.
Hosted by Fisher\SMB + NOW CFO
