The FP&A Playbook for Accounting Leaders

Accounting teams are evolving from record-keepers to strategic partners—but making that shift isn’t easy. Between closing the books, managing reconciliations, and keeping reports accurate, it’s tough to carve out time for the analysis and storytelling that truly drive business performance.

This session will show you how to bridge that gap between accounting and FP&A so you can play a bigger role in planning, decision-making, and strategy. Whether you join in interview format or as an interactive masterclass, you’ll walk away with practical frameworks and real-world examples you can put into action immediately.
