BUFDG's research into the skills required for finance leaders has been completely refreshed to provide the latest guidance for aspiring finance leaders. The outputs are drawn from numerous interviews with VCs, Registrars, COOs, CFOs, Finance Directors, HR Directors, Deputy/Assistant Finance Directors, and external recruiters. As well as identifying the skills and attributes required, we also lay bare the challenges you might face when trying to develop as a senior leader, and, most importantly, the types of development activities and experience that will add value. The report and outputs can be used by all levels to form development plans, and by those wishing to develop their staff too.
