The finance function’s quiet revolutionThe finance function has been increasingly successful in streamlining and automating traditional core tasks within compliance and control, which, to put it plainly, leaves us with two possible starting points: 1: We can render ourselves redundant; or2: We can exploit the resources that automation and digitalisation release in another way.We believe that a company which has a focus on value creation should choose the latter. The finance function’s professional and analytical competencies have the potential to create far more value than is currently the case in many companies.In this book, we have given a complete guide on how to become an invaluable partner for the business and ultimately go from being a cost centre to a profit centre.The route to achieving this goes through a systematic development of what we call the business partner mindset. It involves, amongst other things, all employees in the finance function developing a strong business understanding and beginning to see colleagues and managers throughout the company as customers who they must service with value-creating and partnership focused advice.By the end of this book the reader is now ready for nothing less than starting out on a journey, one that at its heart is a quiet revolution of the finance function’s role within the company and enhancing the value created for customers.

Paul Pretorius

A comprehensive view of the operational world of the financial manager

Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is an EXCELLENT current view of the world of the financial manager.
It summarises the inputs that contributed to this understanding - and follows the hierarchical approach to financial management. The way it is today...
It tries to provide reason why the contribution of the financial manager plays such an important role in business management - and that view needs to be supported.
I find the English language usage a bit cumbersome - perhaps the writing style of the authors is too formal/academic.
I bought the book to be input to the work we are currently involved in - the design of a modern finance function - but from a process centric angle. Converting to a process-centric design of the finance function will pave the way for the much-expected automation and 4IR impact. A hierarchical design does not easily allow for automation since the inherent principle of hierarchical design is to protect those within the structure.
We believe that a process centric design will improve productivity (higher quality at lower cost) by more than 30%.
We are working towards a pilot and will need to prove this improvement statement through the pilot.

Great topic, little practical substance

Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book was a very expensive summary that seemed like it was created from business school powerpoint presentations. It would have been much more valuable if it had addressed real situations a finance business partner would face. Disappointed I missed the window for returning it, as I only flipped through and could see immediately that it was not what was promised.

Great reference book for optimizing business

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book hit the mark for me.

I was reading it from a consultants perspective, but working in the world of finance and accounting it had lots of valuable insights. I particularly liked the way it was laid out in three parts, The Goal, the Means and the Path, as it made a logical sequence of steps to follow, and also a clue where to dip into the book if you need to work on one part of your journey.

Going right through the value chain in section three of the book, the authors present an inspiration catalogue for optimizing all the different parts of the chain. I think this will be hugely helpful when working with different businesses and figuring out what needs attention and in what order.

This book is not cheap, but it is not expensive either, when I consider the value I can draw from it, and how I can apply that in my business.

This book will sit within handy reach whilst I review and digest all it has to offer.
