The award recognizes financial professionals in the greater Philadelphia area for outstanding performance in their roles as corporate financial stewards.

This includes providing strategic and operational oversight for financial and IT management enterprise-wide, for 700 team members, along with creating strategies for sustainable growth in key financial areas.
“It is an absolute honor to be recognized as a CFO of the Year,” said Adler. “While it has been an important strategy for quite some time at Ricoh, digital transformation has never been more crucial than within the past 16 months. And while I’m very grateful to receive this recognition, I share this acknowledgment with our team who worked together to overcome the many difficult challenges brought on by the pandemic, thanks to our commitment to help improve quality of work life for all.”
The honorees will be celebrated during a virtual event on July 29 and will be included in a special section of the Philadelphia Business Journal’s July 30 issue.
