FP&A Trends Digest: Issue #22
Issue #22 - 25 September 2020
|
Dear colleagues,
As finance professionals, we understand the importance of connecting data and processes across the organisation. This is especially true during uncertain times.
This is why I would like to begin this digest issue with a personal invitation to the global webinar on Connected and Collaborative Planning. For more details, please check out the "Popular Content" section below or visit the FP&A Trends website.
As usual, this digest will cover several FP&A-related topics. To make it interesting for everyone, we tried to mix them up so that you can find the topic that resonates with you most.
Enjoy this issue and stay safe!
Best regards,
Larysa Melnychuk
CEO and Founder
FP&A Trends Group &

It can be rather challenging to integrate all processes across an organisation. There are some important do’s and don’ts that should be kept in mind if you want this project to be successful. At this webinar, Senior Finance Director and CFO at companies such as Janssen, TUI and Anaplan share the necessary steps for implementation as well as some practical examples.
To register for this vendor-agnostic and complimentary webinar, please follow this link. As usual, we will make it as interactive as possible. There will be polling questions and a Q&A session. Feel free to join us on October 22!

If finance, and FP&A in particular, would like to make sure that they are viewed as value-adding business partners, they need to work on their communication skills. This means that FP&A need to find a common language that both finance and the business speak and understand. Cash flow is a good candidate for this role. Find out 7 reasons why cash flow is great for justifying growth and measuring success.

The budget. There has been so much talk about its inefficiencies for the modern business environment. So, why do we continue to create one even though it represents a static picture of the world? In this FP&A Talks issue, Anders talks to Knut Fahlén, author of the book Dynamic Management Strategy. They explore the budget topic in more detail and attempt to explain how organisations might adjust their management models to meet the requirements of the current dynamic reality.
