The Second Digital Swiss FP&A Board: From Traditional to Better and Beyond Budgeting

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

         Michael Page

Swiss Board​

 

It is commonly agreed that the traditional budgeting process is time-consuming and costly. It rarely focuses on strategy and adds little value. Although traditional budgets have evolved over the years, they can hardly meet the challenges of the modern economic and business environment. Join our global discussion on whether Beyond Budgeting is the best alternative. At the meeting, we will discuss whether it is realistic to abandon the budget and transform the whole process.

The Second Digital Swiss FP&A Board will take place on 10 December 2020 from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM CET. 

Join our experienced and international panel of experts to learn how to move from Traditional to Better and Beyond Budgeting.

With the help of modern technology, we will make this digital meeting as interactive as possible by incorporating panel discussion, polling questions, Q&A sessions, and a survey. 

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 Swiss FP&A Board will unite our FP&A chapters from Geneva and Zurich. We are also looking forward to inviting guests from other parts of Switzerland where FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
