The Second Digital North American FP&A Board: "Building Winning FP&A Teams for the "New Normal"

The Second Digital North American FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:
 

 Robert Half

 

Second North American FP&A Board​

The Second Digital North American FP&A Board will be held online on October 27 from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM PST. 

Join our experienced and international panel of experts to learn how to Build Winning FP&A Teams for the "New Normal".

The current business and economic environment are fundamentally different from before. As organisations continue to adapt to the world of "Unknown Unknowns", the Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) role has become increasingly more important with FP&A teams adapting quickly and developing their new "playbooks" to prepare for the future.

At this meeting, we will review the latest FP&A team roles that are not typical for traditional management accounting. Our experienced panel of experts will also share their practical knowledge on

  • how to build FP&A Teams from scratch,
  • how modern technology can enhance team collaboration,
  • what are the latest trends and developments in FP&A employment.

With the help of modern technology, this event will feature presentations on the latest trends in FP&A team building, case studies, a panel discussion from senior finance leaders, polling questions and a Q&A session.

More details on the subject matter and speakers are available below.

What is International FP&A Board?

The International FP&A Board was created in London (UK) in 2013 to guide the development and promotion of the best practices in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). Since then, the Board chapters have been successfully established in 27 cities and 16 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and North America. They aim to identify and support new global trends, valued skill sets and leadership practices in modern corporate Financial Planning & Analysis. 

Digital North American FP&A Board will unite our chapters from Seattle, San Francisco, Houston, Toronto, Washington D.C., Chicago, Boston, New York. We are also looking forward to inviting guests from other parts of North America where FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
