A Workforce of the Future survey conducted in EMEA by Cisco says employees want to retain some aspects of remote working, such as increased autonomy and faster decision-making.

Companies wanting to survive the pandemic’s fallout have to accelerate the pace at which they move to frictionless customer engagement, says SAP Digital Interconnect.

It has become far more difficult for CFOs to ensure compliance across a decentralised network and a scattered workforce.

Had the COVID-19 pandemic occurred prior to the large uptake of cloud technology, the economic fallout would have been far worse.

Embracing digitisation will empower CFOs to help their firms meet the growing market demand for specialisation and niche services within their own operations.

Digital transformation is about changing the way you use technologies to do business.

As finance enters the CFO 3.0 era, CFOs need tools that enable them to deliver on their core competencies.

Modern financial tools have significantly transformed CFOs' roles by giving them access to the accurate, timely, and often real-time data their predecessors never dreamed possible.

To be competitive, organisations must deliver effective and efficient messaging solutions across multiple communications channels, says Uffe Jes Hansen, VP MEA at SAP Digital Interconnect.

With CFOs freed from the shackles of number-crunching, data integration and reporting, they can turn their attention to modernising business processes.

CFOs are playing a more versatile role than ever before, merging their accounting skills with analytics, business management and strategic thinking.

Agility is probably the only way companies will stay in business as the world changes and technology evolves the way businesses operate and customers engage.
