WHY MODERN BUSINESS MANAGEMENT IS THE NEW DIGITAL REVOLUTION IN 2022

CFOs face a dual challenge in 2022: Accelerate growth and digital initiatives and preserve or restore the organisation’s financial health.

Seven out of 10 board directors according to a recent Gartner study say the COVID-19 impact has already accelerated digital business initiatives.

That acceleration is designed to deliver continuous value and agile strategy-setting, real-time risk assessment and mitigation, better informed and faster decisions, and hyperautomation (any process that can be automated should be automated).

And this accelerated digitalisation is sweeping both the finance function and the organisation as a whole.

HOW CAN YOU BUSINESS EMBRACE DIGITAL CHANGE?

It’s easy—and often justifiable—to blame rapid, unceasing technological advancements as the cause of many of today’s major challenges in industries such as manufacturing, distribution, and services. Globalisation, a mobile workforce, and new apps and tools are among the many factors that have created a new reality in which:

  • Data is being generated at mind-boggling rates, forcing you to make sense of it and make intelligent decisions almost on the spot.
  • Organisational silos are inadvertently being created, interfering with operational efficiencies, as individual business units incorporate tools and systems to meet their specific needs.
  • The ability to conduct business anytime and anywhere increases the need to satisfy your customers when they demand it.

Paradoxically, if technology is complicating your business, it can also simplify it. That’s why businesses of all types and sizes have recognised that traditional accounting software and legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions are no longer adequate to keep up in today’s business world—much less tomorrow’s. In fact, 49% of executives surveyed said they’re implementing new systems to replace their out-of-date ERP software, according to a recent report published by Sage
