by 卡塔尔世界杯常规比赛时间 research
corporate cfos are 2.2 times more likely than staff accountants to understand their companies’ plans for financial transformation, according to new research exposing a significant gap in the future of digital tools, the need for greater staff accountant education, and the lack of a unified vision within organizations.
although cfos are traditionally seen as leaders in setting an organization’s financial direction, staff accountants often find innovative solutions with their deep understanding of processes and technology limitations. staff accountants tend to be excluded from financial transformation efforts despite their importance.
key challenges identified in the survey sponsored by floqast, a finance and accounting operations platform provider, include:
- 82% of accountants need detailed education on the financial transformation process.
- over one-third of cfos and accountants are optimistic about ai’s future, with 40% believing humans play a crucial role in ai applications.
- 33% of accountants believe ai will change how accounting works and view ai as a critical component of financial transformation.
