The role of finance in organizational future-readiness and orchestrating business performance

Managing uncertainty and facing disruption has been on the minds and the agendas of visionary CFOs for years; however, the past year bewildered even the most advanced organizations. As businesses now reflect on performance and recognize the opportunity for improvement in front of them, finance leaders find themselves at the center of the conversation. The Office of the CFO is forging partnerships across the business to support organizational resilience, and in that process are rethinking business models and strategies, ensuring agility in processes and systems, optimizing resources, uncovering opportunities for efficiency, and supporting the organizational strategy to drive growth.
