Dec 11 2024 13 mins

If you invest in stock, you would know that most of a company’s value is based on future expectations of the company. All you need to do is not disappoint these expectations. However, how do you influence the expectations and ensure you don’t disappoint? We will discuss your company’s future expectations as the fourth and final driver of shareholder value creation in this wee

S13 Ep4: Is Your Balance Sheet Creating Value?

Dec 04 2024 19 mins

No one cares about the company’s balance sheet but Finance. That’s a shame because all value creation in a company passes through the balance sheet before it is distributed to company shareholders. That’s why we also need to bring this to the attention of decision makers. We should ensure our assets are highly utilized, that we collect our money and pay our bills efficiently,

S13 Ep3: Who's Better to Drive Down Costs Than Finance Professionals

Nov 27 2024 15 mins

The answer is “No one!” Sure, finance professionals don’t always execute cost savings programs, but they’re often tasked with finding efficiencies, facilitating decision-making, and following up to see if savings are realized.

S13 Ep2: How Finance Professionals Should Drive Growth

Nov 20 2024 13 mins

Who’s in charge of growth in your company? Most would probably say it’s the Chief Commercial Officer (or similar position). No one would argue that Finance holds this responsibility. That’s entirely fair. However, it shouldn’t stop finance professionals from being part of the growth conversation. In fact, we would argue that Finance plays a critical role in driving growth.

S13 Ep1: How Finance Professionals Drive Value Creation

Nov 13 2024 15 mins

Is the finance function a cost center or a value driver? This is a fundamental question with a complex answer. If you ask a random person in a company, they would like to say, “cost center,” and that has been the stereotype for ages. However, for the past twenty years, there’s been a movement to try and create a different narrative. In this first episode in a new series about

S12 Ep8: The Dawn of a New Age in the Finance Function

Nov 06 2024 13 mins

Think ten years into the future. What will it be like to work in the finance function? There are no guarantees, but it will likely be different from today. How can we recognize these changes? That’s the tricky question we set out to answer in this week’s show. It’s the final episode in our Finance 2035 series, where we have predicted the future of the finance function in 2035

S12 Ep7: A Look At the Finance Professional of 2035

Oct 30 2024 17 mins

What happens when artificial intelligence can autonomously manage the finance function? Will it be the end of the finance professional as we know it? The answer is “Yes!”. That’s probably scary to some, but it may not be as bad as you think. In this week’s #FinanceMaster Show we break it down for you. What’s important to the younger part of the workforce today? Making an

S12 Ep6: The Finance Tech Stack of the Future

Oct 23 2024 24 mins

No one can predict what technology will be available in 2035. The best way to make such a prediction is to start with what’s available today and extrapolate those capabilities. Next, we can look at emerging technologies available today but not used on a large scale. Finally, we can consider technologies currently being built or imagined and guess how they could be used in the fut

S12 Ep5: How Finance Will Serve the Company in 2035

Oct 16 2024 15 mins

We can assume some basic principles will apply even further into the future. One of these is that there’s a finance function to serve a business. What the services are and how they’re delivered, though, is constantly evolving. In this week’s show we will look more closely at the finance function value chain and what service business leaders can expect to receive from finance

S12 Ep4: How Finance Functions Should Operate in the Future

Oct 09 2024 19 mins

How does an AI-first finance function operate? This is THE key question to answer when trying to predict how the finance function will look in 2035. In this week’s show, we will start making more granular predictions to draw a concrete picture of how we see the finance function will operate in 2035.
