Summary

After a decade of re-engineering, benchmarking, and systems implementation, finance executives are being forced to focus on the outside world. Risk, regulation, and uncertainty are driving a radical re-think of finance’s role and its use of performance management tools.

In this webcast, David Axson, author of Best Practices in Planning and Management Reporting – From Data to Decisions, will describe finance’s radical new role, and effective leveraging of Corporate Performance Management (CPM) systems. Cognos will complement this discussion by providing insights as to how to start the process of changing planning practices to meet current market needs.

You will learn:

  • How the changed finance role can be used effectively in the corporate performance management process
  • How enterprise planning can increase visibility into corporate performance
  • How enterprise planning offers the flexibility to respond to changing business conditions
  • How to create a reliable picture of future performance in your organization
