Four Faces of the CFO - Operator

Efficiency and service levels are the primary areas of focus for the Operator. The Operator must dynamically balance cost and service levels in delivering on the finance organization's responsibilities, and adapt finance's operating model as necessary. Talent management, offshoring and  shared service decisions are often the key issues to be addressed.
