Beyond 2024
Striking the balance between trust and control
This panel dove into the fascinating and ever-evolving concept of financial control, discussing why it’s time to move away from the old-school micromanagement style and embrace a more democratic approach to financial oversight — which is ultimately a win-win situation for everyone involved.
We looked into the pitfalls of traditional financial control, which often came with a hefty dose of micromanagement — from endless approvals for even the smallest expenses to spreadsheets filled with red tape, and tedious decision-making processes. The speakers painted a picture of a world where teams had the tools they needed to make informed decisions without having to jump through hoops.
