Tell me an idea or suggestion you have made that was implemented in the finance area?

As a Controller and a senior level manager's, I'm in a position to not only have ideas, but to implement my ideas. On the flip side, I have to remain open to hear my employees ideas as well and to evaluate and implement new practices as well. I have found that listening to employees ideas and trying them ( if realistic), helps build morale, and cohesiveness within the office environment.

It's important here to focus on the word implemented. There's nothing wrong with having a lot of ideas, but they need to be vocalized. Be prepared with a story about an idea of yours that was take from idea to implementation and considered successful.

This is always a good question to showcase a person's thought process and ability to work with others.
