Melanie Stern, Editor, Financial Director Magazine Biog...
The CFO's influence on a business has increased amid the economic crisis, as demands for their help and requirements to pay closer attention to expenditure have taken precedence. This has also meant CFOs being asked to provide more detailed business intelligence and performance management across their businesses – a role more commonly known as the Chief Performance Officer. But are some FDs actually performing this dual role, which can be so important to a businesses’ strategy, without realising? What systems do they have at their disposal and what penetration or influence in non-financial operations do they have to help them do this? |
