Course description
Overview
CFO of the Future 5 – Best Practice Measurement & Reporting It is likely that your measures and reports are too slow, detailed and lack performance insights. Most managers don’t know where they are until two weeks after each month end. This workshop will help you to raise your game and provide your partners with fast, frequent and relevant information.
Spread out over the year, these workshops will bring you up to speed with all the latest tools, techniques and best practices and enable you to drive positive growth and change inside your organisation. Based on many insights into how the best CFO’s have improved their finance operations, the series provides the opportunity for you to take a career step-change in knowledge and performance.
Who is this for?
The CFO of the Future workshops are aimed at existing and aspiring CFO's (including finance directors/controllers/managers, strategic/business planners, mid-level finance staff and anyone responsible for improving the finance and planning operations) who want to improve their knowledge and performance. They are applicable to both the private and public sectors.
What will you learn?
- How to turn “dumb KPIs” into intelligence using business analytics and corporate performance management
- How to design ‘reports on a page’ and use trends
- How to design team-based scorecards and align measures and rewards
- Using comparisons (bench marking, peer to peer comparison) to drive continuous improvement
- The law of unintended consequences and avoiding them – conflict of measures and adverse human behaviours
