Today’s CFOs have diversified their responsibilities, embracing non-traditional skills, implementing merging technologies and championing purpose-led initiatives.
Roles and their associated responsibilities naturally evolve over time, and the position of CFO is no exception.
This evolution means finance leaders have moved on from just being holders of the purse strings and keepers of historical records. They are now future-focused strategists and advisors, capable of providing guidance and commercial insights where their businesses need them most.
We’ve seen time and again that it’s the organisations with access to the right digital tools – and the skills to glean valuable insights from data – that are most successful. As our profession undergoes its own digital transformation, we must ensure we have the right talent and the right technology to deliver success.
