GBD170. How CFOs are transforming their finance teams for the digital world.

FLP, the Finance Leadership Podcast

"Collectively, ALL of these changes are transforming finance professionals into digitally-effective finance business partners".

We look at how CFOs are transforming their finance teams for the digital world, and provide some new understandings of which past, present and future skills need to be fused together. We’re joined by a returning guest, Aubrey Joachim FCMA CGMA MBA, who became the first CIMA President from outside the UK and Ireland.

Talking Points. In this episode, we discuss:

• how finance professionals are becoming data-scientists,
• the road ahead for emerging CFOs,
• what the finance leaders of tomorrow need to be learning today,
• resources and tools that CFOs could use to assess themselves and their teams, and understand how this applies to the digital world.
