Finance Teams of the Future
Teams made up of staff that have existing finance and finance-related skills, but that are underperforming will be quickly exposed as their company tries to navigate their way into the future. These teams are typically characterised by low diversity, low change team members and do their best to fly under the radar.
EXPERIENCED
Most finance teams sit here. These teams are performing well - high performing even - now. However, they do not have, or they have not considered the skills required to be a high performing finance team in the future. For these teams 'success' has an expiry date.
EQUIPPED
This is particularly common in new and fast growing businesses, where over the past 12- 18 months, recruitment has been focused on future skills or skills required to deliver the future strategy. Because of the pace of change, or relative immaturity typical of these businesses, performance isn't where it needs to be despite the skill capability.
ELEVATED
This is where finance teams of the future teams sit. They are high performing AND they have capability that will enable them to evolve and grow to the new demands of the future. Elevated teams are typical highly self-aware, adaptive and diverse. CFOs of elevated teams have the confidence to know their team can operate effectively without them and therefore can focus on business strategy and growth.
When teams are laser focused on the right activity, and they are aligned in their vision, they're able to establish the optimal cadence to create velocity in their work. Your team can be agile to the pace of the business and market. They are FUTURE FIT.
❌ You operate with a command and control team leadership style
❌ You are not looking for measurable positive outcomes
✅ a more connected team, that has greater trust in each other
✅ a clear understanding of what your finance team needs to thrive
✅ an improved operating rhythm and communication cadence
✅ your finance team having better relationships with their key shareholders in delivering greater value to the business
✅ measurable improvement and progress against expectations
✅ improved stakeholder feedback and engagement with your team
✅ a suite of tools and templates that you can utilise to ensure your team continue to stay elevated beyond the course of the program
| How long is the program? |
A key tenet of the Elevate program is that changes are observable and sustainable well beyond the course of the program, and the 6 and 12 month cadence is established accordingly.
| What outcomes will I get? |
- improved business partnering relationship with the business
- greater cohesion within the finance leadership team
- elevated strategic thinking and operating at the executive table and with stakeholders
- improved relationships and level of influence with key stakeholders
| How do you measure the outcomes? |
| Is there any other way my team can work with you? |
