Digitally Transforming Finance into a Strategic Business Partner Webinar
Featuring Linda Hull, Product Marketing Director, Workday; Ray Alwani, VP, Finance, Strategic Planning & Optimization, Enmax; and Beth Tracton-Bishop, Ph.D., Director of Research for Harvard Business Review Analytic Services
Although finance is an essential function in every company, finance teams spend too much time gathering data, staring at spreadsheets, completing the close, and generating reports.
Digital tools can reduce and even eliminate these tasks, freeing up finance to add more value as a strategic business partner. And a recent report by HBR-AS looked at how organizations are turning their finance functions into data-driven decision partners.
In this webinar, Beth Tracton-Bishop, Ph.D. from HBR-AS explored the findings of this report on how organizations are rethinking how finance works and adds strategic value. Workday’s Linda Hull and Enmax’s Ray Alwani shared insights and best practices for transforming finance.
They discussed:
• The key steps of digital transformation in finance
• Benefits of digital financial transformations
• Benefits of unifying financial planning and consolidation
• Best practices among organizations embracing digital transformation
• Challenges organizations experience—and overcome—in undertaking digital transformation
