How CFOs & COOs are bridging the gap between human capital and daily operations
CFO and COO roles and responsibilities continue to expand as the private equity industry grows and evolves. As the back and middle offices work to improve approaches for managing daily operations and promote strategic collaboration across the firm, there is also a need to prioritize talent management. Firms are proactively building sustainable operations and require the resources, technology and talent to navigate firm initiatives.
An insightful panel of senior finance and operations executives will share processes for balancing human capital and functional objectives to create operational efficiencies within PE firms.
- Managing the increase of CFO and COO involvement in firm growth and initiatives (investor relations, committees, public affairs, ESG, IT, etc.)
- Restructuring talent recruitment and retention strategies in a competitive market
- The Great Resignation: examining the impact on employee turnover in the back and middle office
- Assessing the need to utilize outsourced partners or add new hires to the firm
- Establishing a sustainable, inclusive environment to meet firm and investor requirements
- Deploying the latest technology to achieve operational efficiencies in data, reporting and valuation
- How will recent regulatory developments impact CFO and COO responsibilities?
