The FP&A Trends Webinar: Mastering the Art and Science of Value Adding FP&A
The webinar was proudly sponsored by:
FP&A is a crucial function that helps organizations to effectively manage their value. However, for five years in a row, the FP&A Trends Survey has shown that only one-third of FP&A's time is spent on value-adding activities, such as generating insights and supporting decision-making.
So, what is the formula for Value Adding FP&A? Why is it important, and how can we get there?
The FP&A Trends webinar on October 18th answered these questions. Senior finance practitioners from Ecolab, Alexion Pharmaceuticals and OneStream shared their practical insights.
