Episode Description

The buzz: Predictive. Today's finance organization charter is broadened, with core functional deliverables enhanced by service to most functions company-wide. There is no excuse not to use modern technology. Predictive analytics is no longer "the PhD thing" for specialized SAS programmers in the basement. Predictive is a must for a modern controller, accountant and treasurer, especially if you hope to meet and outperform your CFO's goals. The experts speak. Anders Reinhardt, VELUX: “A fool with a tool is still a fool” (Grady Booch). Nancy J. Jones, Educator: “Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise… But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom” (Charles Spurgeon). Rob Kugel, Ventana Research: “You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there” (Yogi Berra). Henner Schliebs, SAP: “Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future” (Niels Bohr). Join us for Predictive Analytics and Finance: Role Play
