Increasing agility in finance function
The ongoing uncertainty driven by the pandemic means moving towards long term flexibility in the new year is more important than ever, according to Jill Klindt, CFO at Workiva.
“I was a little naive going into 2021 [thinking] maybe we’ll get back to a normal, and I’ve gotten rid of that notion,” she said. “Normal is going to be whatever comes and we just need to be able to be more flexible to fit the current needs.”
