John Lemanski, MBA, CFE, senior manager in the Litigation Consulting, Valuation and Bankruptcy Services Practice Group at Margolin, Winer & Evens LLP, a leading certified public accounting and business advisory firm, has earned his Certified Turnaround Professional (CTP) designation. According to the Turnaround Management Association, an organization committed to the corporate renewal profession, the CTP designation was introduced in 1993 to provide training and create a measure of the experience, knowledge and integrity that is necessary to conduct corporate renewal work. To become a CTP, Lemanski had to meet stringent standards of education, experience and professional conduct that have been developed and are administered by the TMA's standards committee in conjunction with faculty. Maintaining the CTP designation requires a professional to remain active in the specialty and complete at least 50 hours of continuing professional education during each two year period. In addition to extending his professional credentials, Lemanski is a highly sought out speaker on topics relating to business valuations, corporate turnarounds and forensic accounting.
