BUSINESS HORROR STORIES

​Some business stories are scarier than fiction.

​You’ve heard the success stories.

​These aren’t those stories.

​Fraud. Bad decisions. Deals gone wrong. And the moments nobody saw coming.

​This Halloween season, CBIZ, NOW CFO, and Fisher\SMB are opening the door to the side of business people usually only talk about behind closed doors.

​Join us at Seattle’s historic Stimson-Green Mansion for real business horror stories, drinks, networking, and a few “there’s no way that actually happened” moments.

​MEET THE STORYTELLERS

​Mona Veiseh

​These are people who have had a front-row seat when business didn’t go according to plan.

​NOT YOUR TYPICAL PANEL

​No presentations. No rehearsed talking points. No stuffy panel.

​We’re putting the stories front and center.

​One storyteller at a time. One real business nightmare. Then we’ll dig into what happened and open the conversation to the room.

​They’ll tell you what happened. You get to ask the questions.

​Come for the stories. Stay for the drinks, the connections, and the details we probably shouldn’t put in writing.
