Long Description:
Unpacking a Decade-Long Evolution of the financial Function
The ‘guardians of enterprise value creation’, financial teams have experienced a massive transformation in the last ten years. One that has sparked debates about innovation and adaptation.
In this webinar, we get to the bottom of this undeniably impressive evolution to understand why businesses are relying heavily on the financial function to help them ride out unprecedented challenges.
We’re throwing it back to a time when spreadsheets and Salesforce reigned supreme and the financial team was acting more as custodians than advisors. With many financial teams still pushing through with spreadsheets and a pipework of frustrating bottlenecks; we reveal critical insights to set you on the path to success.
The short answer? It’s all about flexibility…
Find out how you can:
– Go beyond the traditional ‘preservation’ role of financial
– Move away from process-heavy, siloed approaches
– Break free from webs of spreadsheets before they snap, toward a future-proof tech stack
– Manage revenue recognition as contracts get more complex
