The incredible events of the past few years have proven that making a business as agile as possible is key to success over time. While it’s impossible to predict the future, CFOs can prepare their organizations to be agile, resilient, and better prepared for the long term, while meeting the near-term needs of their customers and prospects.

To do that, they’ll need a fully integrated Business Planning and Analysis (BP&A) function, which can be a competitive advantage to companies as they drive business results in this challenging environment. This advantage will be important as the CFOs role continues to evolve from the traditional finance function into a strategic partner, with businesses looking to CFOs for guidance on a range of business issues. In this playbook, you’ll learn:

• How process changes within the BP&A function can unlock greater organizational efficiency
• Best practices for strategic cost optimization
• Strategies to align business strategy and talent strategy
