Course Description

A quick-start approach to finance innovation or acceleration of existing transformation initiatives became necessary for many organizations over the past year. Whether they were implementing finance transformation initiatives or just starting out, the pandemic laid bare some of the gaps in processes and technologies that needed to be urgently addressed. Most notable was an increased awareness of how speed to value is maximized when you bring the proper balance of operational change, technology innovation, and talent strategy.

Join Ernst & Young leaders for an interactive conversation about the business case for finance innovation and the transformation journey of a global organization.

Learning Objectives:

Determine if you tweak current processes or rebuild them

Identify which tasks can offer the most benefit from increased automation

Recall how do you re-deploy resources to provide more significant insights and help drive business decisions

Determine what the impact is on culture and people
