CFO Insights: Accelerating Growth Amid Economic Uncertainty

Economic uncertainty is a top concern. Artificial intelligence (AI) has shifted from theory to reality. Minimizing manual processes and enhancing cybersecurity are major missions. While growth requires a collaborative effort by an organization’s top leadership, it appears finance leaders could improve in the working-together department.

Those will be among the timely topics explored at our CFO Insights webinar, Accelerating Growth Amid Economic Uncertainty, where we’ll dig into findings from our recent 2025 CFO Insights report: Action for Growth. Please join us as panelists share insights and strategies for tackling the major challenges reported by finance leaders from around the globe.

We’ll examine how:

• With worsening economic conditions and geopolitical tensions top concerns for finance leaders, how do they maintain the right balance of offense and defense as conditions rapidly change? And how does the CFO manage forecasting in a time of turmoil?
• As AI moves from theory to practice, 57% of leaders say general office tasks are now automated vs. 7% in 2024. How do finance leaders move from quick wins to projects with business-wide impact?
• Cybersecurity is increasingly a threat for organizations of all sizes, so what is a CFO’s role in cybersecurity? And what practical steps can finance leaders take to collaborate with IT and others, especially considering that many CFOs and IT leaders see “conflicting department priorities” as a challenge?

During the webinar, panelists will explore those topics and others from the extensive CFO Insights research while you’ll gain the knowledge and resources to help you move your business forward.
