Automation promises to free finance teams from repetitive work and create more room for strategic business partnering. But gaining capacity does not automatically change how a finance team operates.
Without clear choices about roles, behaviour and accountability, the time saved can quickly be absorbed by old habits.

Carsten Gerger, VP Finance at Lucanet, helped scale the company’s finance organisation as revenue grew from €10 million to more than €200 million.
In this Masterclass, he will share what happened when his team regained 30% of its time: where that capacity created real business impact, where it did not, and what finance leaders need to do differently.

At the heart of the session is a leadership challenge: can your people take a position, own an outcome and defend a number when it comes under scrutiny?
Carsten will explore the three conditions that determine whether newly created capacity leads to better decisions or simply fills up again. Live polling will allow you to compare your own finance function with those of your peers in the room.
