Panel - Why Finance Transformation Fails: Lessons From the Front Line
Finance transformation promises greater efficiency, improved decision-making, and stronger business performanceābut many initiatives fail to deliver the expected results. While organisations often invest heavily in new ERP systems, EPM platforms, and digital tools, technology alone rarely determines success. The real challenge lies in driving organisational change, securing stakeholder buy-in, and embedding new ways of working across the business.
In this panel discussion, experienced finance leaders will share the lessons learned from successful and unsuccessful transformation programmes. Discover why adoption often falls short, how effective change management and data governance underpin lasting success, and what separates high-impact transformations from costly implementations that never achieve their full potential.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand why finance transformations succeed or fail by exploring the organisational, cultural, and leadership factors that matter most.
- Learn how to drive adoption across the business through effective change management, stakeholder engagement, and strong data governance.
- Gain practical lessons from real-world transformation journeys to avoid common pitfalls and maximise the long-term value of finance transformation initiatives.
