Next Generation CFO Leadership Program

Posted 2023-12-05 05:45:57

CFOs drive bold transformation by enabling and supporting critical capabilities across the organization. The finance function is a complex, interconnected ecosystem of individuals and teams that need to understand each other in order to collaborate effectively. This is particularly true for CFOs, who need a deep understanding of the company's operating model and business strategy in order to create value and lead strategic financial leadership.

As a result, it is more important than ever for CFOs to prioritize broader leadership, general management, communication and strategy skills in addition to their traditional financial expertise. CFOs that focus on these areas will be better positioned to provide thought leadership around sector-shaping trends, deliver a strong strategic partnership with their CEOs and boards, and help their companies succeed in the changing landscape.

This program is designed to enable aspiring finance professionals, known as “emerging CFOs,” to begin the process of rounding out their skills. It covers various themes including Finance Business Partnership, Leadership, Strategy & Value Creation and Digital Transformation in a multimodal learning journey over 7 - 10 months.

Ultimately, a successful CFO will need to communicate effectively with many stakeholders – employees, the board, shareholders, analysts and investors. The HOFT Academy provides an opportunity for participants to improve their public speaking and communications abilities through a group workshop. Those with further development needs will also have the option of receiving one-to-one professional mentoring from a high performing CFO and/or finance leader.
