Controllers and CFOs must help steer the organization through turbulent times. They must know and influence the organization’s vision, department vision and the economic, business, social, political, and technological environment in which they work and compete.
The Strategic Outlook 2023 will help financial professionals identify and understand the trends that will dictate the future environment. In addition, we will examine the Controller and CFO role and the
importance of moving from a “Maintainer” to a “Visionary” mentality. The course will focus on the critical functions of Efficiency Expert, Financial Analyst, Technology Expert and Futurist. The traditional
accounting role is changing into a hybrid accounting/technological professional and requires more proactive, insightful and strategic financial leadership.
