– corresponding the growing complexity in the marketplace,
value chain, events getting more dificult to predict.
We believe that the new, highly-interconnected reality requires
a holistic approach = thus a tighter collaboration between CFO,
Human Capital Leader and even CMO would be desireable.
CFO protects vital company assets, monitors financial data
ensuring compliance – being a company Steward as well as
Operator – he needs allies in HR, marketing and other areas to
drive the company agenda effectively.
At www.AnalyticsOfficers.com, driving new CFO agenda as a
value creator leveraging Big Data/Analytics technology, we
focus on CFO’s Strategist hat - strategic planning, company-
wide alignment, being a proactive business partner, who puts
the organization on a sustainable growth path, as well as a
Catalyst – who takes advantage of technology innovation
available and get to the driver’s seat of change management
company-wide.
