FP&A Trends Digest: Issue #39
Issue #39 - 5 June 2021

Dear colleagues,

Eric Hoffer, an American philosopher, is famously quoted as saying “in a time of drastic change it is the learners who inherit the future.” Although the concept of "growth mindset" was coined almost 7 years ago, it is more relevant than ever before. In this digest, we dive deeper into what a growth mindset means for FP&A as well as exploring ways to identify the right drivers for your planning process.

At the bottom of this digest, you will find invitations to two webinars. Join us to stay on top of the latest trends and developments in FP&A!

Enjoy the issue and stay safe!

Kind regards,

Larysa Melnychuk
