CFO Vantage Program: Early preparation is essential

  • CFOs are key decision makers—leaders in their organisations who are held to high standards and are expected to set high standards.
  • For finance executives to successfully take the reins from day one, early preparation and training is essential.
  • As finance permeates every aspect of the business, today’s CFOs serve in a far greater capacity and hold greater responsibility than in the past.

It provides executives with an opportunity for preparation, self-reflection, and hands-on scenario planning related to key aspects of CFO goals and objectives.

The faculty is uniquely positioned to deliver this curriculum, offering attendees decades of first-hand experience from C-suite executives, analysts, rating agency executives, authors, university professors, attorneys, and senior Deloitte partners.

It is built on real-life business, commercial and financial experience, with insights, guidance, and support from multiple business leaders.

The Academy provides the participants with an opportunity to build meaningful relationships with peers from similarly sized organisations across industries and geographies.
