Finance Business Partnering – the search for value

Our recent experience with clients such as Rolls-Royce, Shell and Unilever has found increasing use of Finance Business Partnering as the model for cross-functional communication and decision support.

Recognising that this subject has received little attention in academic and research circles, we have carried out our own extensive surveys and interviews with organisations such as Aviva, BBC, BAT, Diageo, Invensys, Roll-Royce, Shell and Unilever, and Alan Warner, one of MTP's founding partners, has written a newly published book on the subject. 

The book covers the topic from two complementary angles - the experience of MTP in developing learning programmes for world class companies and focused research into what these leading companies are actually doing, the challenges they face and the lessons learned. 

The concluding chapter then puts forward some provisional conclusions which should contribute to a healthy ongoing debate about the best ways to define, identify and develop the right set of skills for the Finance Business Partners of the future.

If you would like an electronic copy of the book at no charge, or more information on how MTP can support the development of Finance Business Partners in your organisation,  simply contact us either by email at learn@mtpplc.com or on 01296 423474.
