What are Independent Communities?
These are online communities that are hosted on their own platform, and not a part of a social network like Reddit/Facebook/LinkedIn, or communication platform like Slack and Discord. Although they may utilize community software like circle.so to implement the features of their community, they have their own brand and identity.

Controllers Council™ is the leading national community, association and platform of Controllers, CFOs, and corporate accounting and finance professionals focused on best practices, training and career resources, recognition, and multiple peer interaction opportunities.

Case in point, Controllers outnumber CFOs nearly 3-1 in the United States, and almost 6-1 globally. In fact, there are over 250,000 Controllers in the United States, and more than 800,000 Controllers globally. Depending on organization size and industry, Controllers are often the top executive after the President or CEO, with broad responsibilities and decision-making authority. And Controllers Council is laser-focused on bringing a wide range of programs and resources to Financial Controllers, and other Accounting/Finance executives including CFOs, Vice Presidents of Accounting and Finance, Chief Accounting Officers (CAOs), CPAs, Directors, and related roles.250K members
