Finance teams today are under pressure unlike anything that came before: rising expectations from the business, rapid evolution of tools and technology, and a strategic agenda that most teams were never built or developed to deliver.
The capability gap is real, and it is widening.
In this session, finance transformation advisor Anders Liu-Lindberg joins Carsten Gerger, VP of Finance at Lucanet, to explore why upskilling your finance team has moved from a nice-to-have to a strategic priority, and what it takes to close the gap.
Together they will cover:
- Why finance capability is not keeping pace with CFO expectations, and where the biggest gaps show up in practice
- What is consuming your team's capacity and what it is costing your organisation
- What works when organisations invest in upskilling, and where those programmes typically fall short
- How the rapid evolution of finance technology is raising the bar for the people running it, and how CFOs should respond
Anders has spent the last decade helping organisations build high-performing finance functions, guiding learning journeys for more than 1,000 finance professionals across industries.
Carsten has been part of building Lucanet's finance function from scratch into a 40-person team across 20 entities and 15 countries and knows first-hand what it takes to develop a team that scales with the business.
If you are a CFO or finance leader who senses the gap, but is not sure where to start, this session is for you.
