FP&A Trends Webinar: FP&A Scenario Planning for the "New Normal"

This webinar is proudly sponsored by:

Scenario Planning​

"If there's one thing that's certain in business, it's uncertainty.” Stephen Covey, Author

The only thing that is certain right now is that the annual plans for the year 2020 are unlikely to be achieved.

How can we plan and forecast in the uncertain environment? One of the current challenges for FP&A professionals is that traditional planning methods are no longer sufficient for this turbulent period. This is where FP&A Scenario Planning comes into play.

This Global FP&A Trends Webinar will take place on September 15 at 5:00 PM CEST and will uncover key factors for successful implementation of scenario planning:

  • How can we make decisions quickly based on real data?
  • What are the pre-requisites to play scenarios quickly and multi-dimensionally?
  • Does technology play an important role for Integrated Scenario Planning?

Join us to find answers to these questions and much more.

The meeting will feature presentations by the international panel of experts from the world-leading companies.
