Energising the strategic role of the CFO: From analysts of the past to authoritative advisors of the future
The traditional role of the CFO is undergoing a transformation, as suggested in this thought-provoking podcast. The narrative challenges conventional notions by advocating for a paradigm shift in the CFO's responsibilities. Interestingly, this evolution leverages existing resources within CFO teams, particularly the Management Accountants, who are facing technological disruptions of their own. Rather than rendering them obsolete, the podcast highlights how these professionals can embrace a more forward-thinking approach, focusing on future strategies rather than past practices.
Central to this reimagined CFO role is the adoption of a strategic system known as Third Wave Strategy, as introduced in the book series "Corporate Strategy (Remastered) Vols. I and II" and explained in the Corporate Strategy Master Class online coursework. It explains how a Third Wave Strategy empowers CFOs to oversee a holistic strategy system, moving beyond traditional functional duties. Importantly, this shift does not diminish the role of the Chief Strategy Officer in shaping corporate strategies; instead, it redefines the CFO's strategic involvement. For a comprehensive understanding of this innovative perspective, the podcast delves deeper into the dynamics of this strategic evolution.
This podcast is published as a supplement to the coursework on corporate strategy that provides insight into Third Wave Strategy - as a system. An overview to the coursework, the Corporate Strategy Master Class program and subscription details can be found here: https://www.csosandbox.com/buy-online-strategic-management-courses-here.
