A Dagens industri feature, produced in collaboration with the consulting and recruitment firm Meritmind, explores the escalating complexity and pressures faced by modern Chief Financial Officers (CFOs). According to Peter Hultman of Meritmind, CFOs often find themselves in an isolated position, tasked with acting as strategists and change leaders while simultaneously navigating evolving regulations, digitalization, and sustainability imperatives. The article emphasizes that crucial change initiatives frequently falter due to internal limitations. It proposes augmenting finance teams with external expertise as a viable solution. Hultman explains that engaging qualified consultants offers neutral perspectives to surmount bottlenecks, ensures access to specialized competencies, and liberates the CFO to focus on high-level strategic responsibilities. For business leaders, this discussion highlights the increasing importance of strategically structuring the finance function and the significant value of leveraging external advisory partners to drive change and support sustainable growth.
