For chief financial officers (CFOs) in Asia, 2020 has delivered sharp lessons demanding new levels of adaptability and agility.
Speaking during a panel discussion at a virtual event organised by SAP Concur, Richard McLean, regional CFO of SAP Asia-Pacific and Japan, said it was only during the ongoing pandemic that his peers truly understood the importance of agility.
“It has become a challenge, particularly for CFOs, to think about this concept and make sure that we learn from this time,” he said, stressing the need to build an agile mindset and adopt new ways of working.
