The Quest For a Single Version of Truth
Break down the role of pioneering Chief Financial Officers and you’ll find their responsibilities stretch far beyond company numbers. The 21st century CFO is at the center of strategy development, analytics and business intelligence, compliance and governance as well as traditional financial management. They drive organizational efficiency through cost control, fuel growth with managed investment, and provide a financial reality-check to strategic decisions. Bean counters? Today’s CFO is more about cultivating the crop than just counting the yield. Today’s CFO is a steward, an operator, a strategist and a catalyst.
