2021 has been a hard year for business. But the plethora of financial and operational challenges companies faced this year also provided plenty of opportunities to reflect, learn, and grow.

In the 2022 instalment of Jack’s masterclass series, we’ll take a bird’s eye view at some of the key learnings from our previous masterclasses, as well as the lessons we learned as we navigate the murky waters of FP&A post-COVID-19.

📅 2022 FP&A Masterclass content calendar:

• March 17: The Ultimate Value Drivers: Growth and Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
• April 28: Planning and Analysis for Critical Value Drivers, Part 1: Growth and Profitability
• June 9: Planning and Analysis for Critical Value Drivers, Part 2: Asset Management
• July 21: Strategic Analysis and Planning
• September 1: The External View: Benchmarking Performance and Competitive analysis
• October 13: Developing Predictive and Analytical Models

Join the 6 module Masterclass presented by Jack Alexander

FP&A has traditionally been a trunk-of-the-car operation, focused on producing numbers, analysing them, and sending out reports and analysis to key company stakeholders/decision makers.

Today, however, this old-school approach to FP&A simply won’t cut it. As companies look for ways to stand out and excel in today’s hyper-competitive business environment, FP&A has the chance to fuel growth, revenue, and better business decisions.

Check out this article, to find out how to take FP&A from the trunk of the company car to the passenger seat and start driving value across the entire organisation!
