Perspectives
What do finance workers want? We asked them about topics like flexibility, compensation, and meaningful work. Their answers reveal trends that are forging the workforce of the future. Creating a truly dynamic finance function will require the effective management of this future workforce. It will take an understanding of what they really do—and why.

It’s built to be dynamic—regardless of what the future may hold.
