On the heels of a decade of scandals and the new pressures brought on by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, corporations expect far more from their CFOs than simply managing the numbers. They expect decision-making support and performance insights that can improve bottom-line results.

Grounded in extensive research, Reinventing the CFO outlines seven critical roles from streamlining redundant processes to regulating risk to identifying a few key measures that CFOs must take on in order to successfully transform the finance operation.Challenging many of the finance field’s accepted practices and systems, this bold book revolutionizes the role of financial managers and frees them to make smart, ethical, strategic decisions that add real value to the firm.

Chart your company's course. Reinventing the CFO is the groundbreaking guide by financial veterans Henry Johanson, Thomas Walther, John Dunleavy and Elizabeth Hjelm that offers a proven blueprint for professionals making the enormous shift from ``number cruncher'' to strategist and business partner. Based on Coopers & Lybrand's pioneering Office of the CFO frameworks, it leads you through the live critical steps that will define how you can face today's challenges: partnering and integration; redefining the role of finance and retraining staff to understand business operations and market drivers; strategy; applying traditional analytical skills and business judgment to the question; where shoudl our company apply its capital resources? management control; producing a new set of strategic measures that business managers can use to anticipate problems and monitor progress; cost management; creating an aggressive, long-term least-cost program that replaces ``cost accounting'' and continuously drives costs down from within; processes and systems-classifying each financial process as ``core,'' ``support,'' or ``no added value,'' and determining the real drivers that affect the company's profitability.
