    One early observation – if you put ‘By 2040’ in front of a statement you can say whatever you like! Lol

    By 2040…

    By 2030, 60% of FP&A operations will be outsourced.

    Almost certainly driven by the standardisation of reporting and planning and the need for specialist analytics skills.

    CFOs are paid to live 12 months in the future not the past

    we are at the peak of GENai hype cycle, risks are there but two thirds of you still see the opportunity

    Suggested conference goals

    1. Make new connections
    2. Learn about new vendors
    3. Learn from showcases

    This is what we want to build on GENCFO every single day!

    Lead with empathy and authenticity in a digital world… being a “Human CFO” can help you deliver on financial performance…

    I like the direction. We can do so much more to engage on outcomes and people BEFORE we talk about process, tech and performance. Just FLIP the conversation, hey @mrmikerose

    eg Dont start with the numbers, start with the opportunties (and risk) to your stakeholders business, then the numbers. It’s one of a number of FLIP’s on our FLIP Training.

    …this was an automation session but all areas covered, reporting, workflow, process, close, analytics. So everything really! ????????
