ISO skilled personnel

According to the Q2 AICPA Economic Outlook survey, availability of skilled personnel is the number one priority for finance leaders.

One clear result of the pandemic has been the rapid acceleration of the digital transformation of our economy. Accompanying this digital transformation is an acceleration of changes to the critical skills, capabilities and mindsets that businesses need.

It is therefore vital to develop a strategic and sustainable approach to acquiring, developing and retaining a diverse pool of accounting and finance talent.

In this webcast, experts will share insights on • how Yelp has driven this change by putting together more formal development building blocks and • how Yelp has used models such as the CGMA Competency Framework to develop finance capability and talent needed to drive changes to their digital business and operating model.
