In a blog by our partner, Intacct, they note that CFOs are rising above the spreadsheet and proving that their strategic value goes far beyond just balancing the books and crunching the numbers. Increasingly more equipped with business insights, analytics, and data, finance chiefs are rapidly becoming major players in the corporate world.
In a post on CFO.com, the importance for CFOs to interact cross-functionally and keep the lines of employee communication wide open are highlighted. They detail three goals that finance leaders need to keep in mind when sharing information across the company.
As technology continues to evolve, the role of finance continues to progress as well, as noted in a Bisnow article. No longer confined to just budgeting and bookkeeping, finance executives are leading the charge in implementing new technology and modern solutions.
