The Digital German FP&A Board: A New Age of Zero-Based Budgeting
The Digital German FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:
In today’s dynamic world, the traditional budgeting process is increasingly outdated. But what if your organisation is still not ready to abandon it completely?
Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB) can act as a stepping stone to a more modern budgeting process. It enables us to understand key drivers, encourages a culture of business partnering and value creation, and supports agile FP&A. We can also apply its principles to the wider FP&A process, in what is known as Zero-Based FP&A.
Jointhe Digital German FP&A Board on the 3rd of February at 5:00 PM CET to learn how to successfully implement ZBB.
A recording of the event will be shared afterwards with everyone who registers.
What is the International FP&A Board?
The International FP&A Board was created in London (UK) in 2013, and now has chapters in 27 cities and 16 countries around the world. It aims to develop and promote the best practices in modern corporate Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), identifying and supporting new global trends, valued skillsets, and leadership practices.
