It was all business this morning—financial business. John Hansen, Community Bank President at First Bank & Trust in Pipestone, spoke with the young professionals about preparing their finances for their individual businesses. John shared a balance sheet with them and discussed cash flow, as well as profit and loss statements.

Many other topics came up through questions, including depreciation, trends, risk, bank fraud, margins, researching your business, and staying on top of your finances. Our time this morning went by quickly as the young professionals gained a great deal of financial knowledge.

Thank you, John, for sharing your expertise with the SWMN CEO young professionals. And thank you to First Bank & Trust for being a financial sponsor of SWMN CEO!
