The CFO as Business Integrator Hardcover - 2003 - 1st Edition

by Cedric Read; Hans-Dieter Scheuermann; The Mysap Financials Team

From the publisher

SAP gehrt zu den internationalen Marktfhrern, wenn es um die Entwicklung von Softwarelsungen fr eine unternehmensbergreifende Zusammenarbeit geht.

Moderne Unternehmen machen heute stndig strukturelle Vernderungen durch: rasante Vernderungen in den Geschftsmodellen, Merger/Akquisitionen, De-Merger

CEOs werden mit einer verwirrenden Vielzahl von Problemen konfrontiert:
- Wie kann man das Unternehmen/die Unternehmenskultur umwandeln, um den Shareholder Value zu steigern?
- Wie knnen Geschftsprozesse mit Hilfe des Internet rationalisiert werden?
- Wie kann man Prozesse und Systeme von Vorgngerunternehmen integrieren?

Die Lsung vieler dieser Probleme ist jedoch Aufgabe des CFO.

"The CFO as Business Integrator" befasst sich exakt mit dieser Thematik.

Dieses Buch erlutert ausfhrlich, warum gerade die Finanzfunktion in einer starken Position ist, um die entscheidende Rolle bei der Integration von Finanzstrategie, Geschftsprozessen und -systemen zu spielen.

Jedes Kapitel beginnt mit einem Interview eines fhrenden CFO von so renommierten Unternehmen, wie Exxon, Zurich, Nokia, Bosch, Coca Cola, Siemens und Sony.

Diskutiert werden u.a. Kernfragen zur Integration, neue Integrationsmodelle, Aspekte der Financial Supply Chain und strategisches Management.

Der CFO wird zum Business Integrator, der nicht nur Business Systeme integriert, sondern gleichzeitig damit das Unternehmen der Zukunft formt.

Die einzelnen Themenbereiche werden zwar speziell im Hinblick auf SAP-Technologie und -Lsungen diskutiert, doch im allgemeinen wird der Stoff SAP-neutral, weitgehend unabhngig und objektiv behandelt.
