When finance departments had a smaller function, few people would perform the many tasks using the most versatile tool, spreadsheets. However, the maturation of the job is leading to specialization throughout the information value chain. As data became the new oil, Shell Oil began to develop “purple people” in its finance department, introducing new data tools and training that empowers its team to be more effective. At the same time, specialization increases the interactions with others, whether they are specialized in finance or business operators. Attendees learn how to increase the data capabilities of their finance teams and how to embrace the effective “Teaming” techniques necessary for success.
