Integrate data management with tools that allow financial reporting from a single source, allowing senior management and the board to focus on the bigger performance picture. Identify and promote a small number (6 or 7) key financial measures to be used at each level, andPromote the importance of “one truth” and deliver the reality of single source financial reporting.By working to adapt and grow their role, to move from knowledge holders to change agents and strategic contributors, CFOs can also perform the enormously valuable task of promoting that “one truth” that will eliminate information manipulation and mischaracterization that leads to higher-level managers seeing and hearing versions of the truth that may well stand in the way of the transformation the organization needs. 3SHARESShareShareSharePrintMailGooglePinterestDiggRedditStumbleuponDeliciousBufferTumblr,Greg Crandell Greg Crandell provides strategy, market planning, business development, and management consulting to financial technology firms and their clients – Credit Unions and Banks. For more years than he wishes to admit, … Web: queryconsultinggroup.com Details Digital transformation driven by data analytics has become the answer to the question of how best to build a foundation for change. As organizational leaders seek a successful path through this century’s competitive landscape, they have focused on the role of technology to alter the organization with new problem solving tools and process improvement. And they hope data, well used, can bring them the answers they need and the outcomes they seek.CEOs are looking to arrive at a place where digital interactions driven by activated data deliver the highly-desired goal of individualized promotion, unique sales terms, and highly customized customer service. In addition, organizational leaders are attracted by the less publicized but equally desirable financial goals of cost reduction and profit margin improvement. Using fewer people to deliver better service, reducing risk, and providing greater personalization to the customer, at a lower per-transaction cost, is the 21st century’s holy grail. But to do these things, to use data to promote transformation, leaders must not limit their efforts to technology. They need also ask how their roles must adapt, their behaviors change, and the tools they employ be turned toward promoting fundamental change in thinking, not just completing tasks more efficiently.In the article The Changing Role of the 21st Century CEO we argued for CEOs to look to change their roles and behavior, and to encourage data-driven dialogues and nurture dialogue-driven leaders on their teams if they hoped to transform their organizations. We believe CEOs need to focus on “learning and service” to promote change. As well, they need to reinvent planning and decision-making, and harness the efforts of people across the organization to promote holistic change through shared learning and understanding. These initiatives need to start at the top, with the CEO, but they must migrate through the next levels of the organization, beginning with the key roles of C-Level people such as the CFO.CFOs must adapt 20th Century processes and adopt 21st Century RolesToday’s CFOs are challenged to bring 20th Century processes, systems, thinking and practice into the 21st Century’s data-driven organizations. But to do so CFOs, like CEOs, must adopt new ways of working and participating in the broader organization. CFOs have been tasked with more and more duties and responsibilities in recent years and must find a way to both successfully adapt and adopt. Today’s CFOs are expected to be business generalists, risk management experts and business intelligence sources. They are expected to provide instant replies to just about any question that the CEO or Board asks about business performance. And they are expected to do this while continuing to perform the jobs they’ve held all these many years: recording transactions, managing budgets, getting the accounts balanced, preparing statements, and more.But if CFOs are going to succeed in the coming years, they are going to have to adapt their behavior and adopt new skills and tools. In effect, CFOs need to:Move from financial gate keepers to servant-leaders by “teaching and leading” and not just “recording and reporting”Look to add prescriptive tasks and tools to their descriptive ones, aiding strategyBuild financial know-how into decision-making throughout the organization by providing the tools, processes, know-how and culture to spread knowledge throughout the organizationAlong with these efforts, CFOs will need to:Fight against unproductive complexity within the organization by encouraging clarity, simplicity, transparency and accountabilityFocus on “high-value” work and processes that aid decision-making throughout the organization

Criminals stealing unemployment benefits as claims surgeUNDATED (AP) — Criminals are seizing on a surge in job losses to steal unemployment benefits from Americans nationwide. The uptick in crime complicates an already tough situation for millions of financially strapped Americans and overwhelmed state unemployment offices.A U.S. Labor Department official testified last week that at least $26 billion will have been wasted, going largely to fraudsters instead of those in need.Security experts say the bulk of the fraud appears to be committed by criminals using stolen data to make claims using someone else’s identity.With roughly 21.5 million people receiving jobless aid, it creates added opportunity for criminals. An extra $600 a week in benefits makes it even more lucrative. OPEC plus dealUNDATED (AP) — Crude oil prices rose after major oil producing nations agreed to extend a production cut of nearly 10 million barrels of oil a day through the end of July to counter the blow to demand from the coronavirus pandemic. That’s about 10% of global output.OPEC has 13 member states and is largely dominated by oil-rich Saudi Arabia. The additional countries involved in the so-called OPEC Plus accord have been led by Russia, with Mexico under President Andrés Manuel López Obrador playing a considerable role at the last minute in the initial agreement.U.S. crude for July delivery added 42 cents to $39.97 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.Brent crude, the international standard, gained 61 cents to $42.91 per barrel. But Japan’s economy, the world’s third largest, has been stagnant for years and was in trouble even before the pandemic hit consumer spending and other main drivers of growth.The country imposed only limited shutdowns to fight the new coronavirus, leaving less room for a rebound than in some other countries. Weak global demand is also weighing on exports.

NABE SURVEYSurvey: Business economists expect worst slump since 1940sWASHINGTON (AP) — Business economists expect the United States to suffer its worst downturn this year in more than seven decades before growth resumes sometime next year.Overhanging that forecast, though, is the risk that a second wave of the coronavirus could threaten the economy once again.A survey by the National Association for Business Economics predicts that the gross domestic product — the total value of goods and services produced in the United States — will fall 5.9% for 2020 as a result of the recession triggered by the virus. Germany started easing restrictions to public life on April 20 and the process has gathered pace since. JAPAN-ECONOMYJapan says economy contracted less than earlier reportedTOKYO (AP) — Japan says its economy contracted less than initially estimated in the first quarter.The Cabinet Office says the economy shrank at an annual rate of 2.2% in January-March, better than the earlier reported 3.4% contraction. Analysts say the revision wasn’t surprising and a recovery is expected as countries reopen after their coronavirus shutdowns. GERMANY-ECONOMYGerman industrial production down nearly 18% in AprilBERLIN (AP) — Official data show that German industrial production plunged by nearly 18% in April compared with the previous month at the height of Europe’s coronavirus lockdowns.The 17.9% decline reported by the Economy Ministry today follows an 8.9% drop in March, when Germany started shutting down.Germany’s lockdown was less severe than those imposed in Italy, Spain and France and it never ordered factories closed, but companies did largely stop production in some areas — such as the automaking sector — and supply chains were disrupted.

NEW YORK (AP) — Even as the U.S. economy begins to flicker back to life and even as job cuts slow and some laid-off people are called back to work, the scope of the devastation left by the viral pandemic has grown distressingly clear to millions who’d hoped for a quick return to their jobs: They may not be going back anytime soon.With many businesses reopening, the government surprisingly announced Friday that contrary to expectations of more layoffs, the economy added 2.5 million jobs in May and the unemployment rate fell from 14.7% to 13.3%. But the harsh reality is that last month’s rehiring is not expected to continue at the same pace.A study by the University of Chicago’s Becker Friedman Institute for Economics says that 42 percent of the layoffs caused by the pandemic could become permanent job losses. Many businesses, from tech start-ups to small shops and big retailers, may not survive the loss of revenue despite federal rescue aid.That aid will run out soon. And despite gradual re-openings, public fear of the virus is still keeping many people away from bars, restaurants, hotels, hair salons and other retail establishments. Few have resumed traveling and sports and entertainment venues remain closed.VIRUS OUTBREAK-UNEMPLOYMENT FRAUD One retail store manager has decided to fight back with a Facebook page called “Retail Life During COVID-19.”After posting a photo of the bruised and bloody face she suffered after being punched by an angry shopper in Modesto, California, Samantha Clarke quickly accumulated tens of thousands of followers.Some told her their stories of similar harassment. Shoppers also weighed in, often thanking Clarke for bringing to their attention what retail workers are up against.

GREG SCHMITZ/Herald photoCoaches and players alike on the Wisconsin softball team have talked all season long about putting together a game in which offense, defense and pitching were all clicking at the same time.Wednesday night, the team — at long last — did just that, defeating the UIC Flames 11-0 in a game that showcased all positive facets of UW head coach Chandelle Schulte’s squad.Wisconsin was relentless at the plate in extinguishing the Flames, connecting for 11 hits — including five for extra-bases — in just four offensive frames en route to its fourth run-rule victory of the year. In NCAA softball, games are made final if a team leads by eight or more runs after the losing team has batted five times.Sophomore Theresa Boruta and senior Kaitlin Reiss paced the Badgers with two hits apiece, but it was sophomore Katie Hnatyk who stole the show for the cardinal and white. Hnatyk knocked off a homer in the first inning off Flames hurler Mercedes Lovato before putting her second ball of the game over the fence off Kelly Cross in the fourth.Her team-leading total of nine home runs ties her freshman year output, and places her in a tie for third all-time on the career list at UW. With six games left in the conference season, Hnatyk is just two home runs shy of the all-time career home run record, in only her second year with the team.”She’s been making a lot of improvements,” said Boruta about Hnatyk. “Early on, a lot of us struggled hitting the ball and being able to take pitches and turn on them. But lately, when pitchers make mistakes, she is able to capitalize on them. She is hitting the ball pretty far.”Both of Hnatyk’s home runs were crushed. On the very first pitch she saw Wednesday, she pulled a Lovato offering well over the 218-foot mark in left-center field for a two-run home run. Junior Sam Polito, who had slapped a single through the right side of the infield to lead off the game, came in to score with Hnatyk, and the Badgers led, 2-0.Hnatyk’s second gopher ball was even more impressive, traveling significantly farther than her original blast, again to left-center. Two Badgers who had pinch-hit earlier in the inning, freshman Stephanie Doyle and junior Liz Klemp, came around to score on the play, finalizing the scoring for Wisconsin at 11 runs.Doyle, the freshman infielder from Glen Ellyn, Ill., earned her first RBI as a Badger before scoring on Hnatyk’s home run.”It’s such a relief,” Doyle said of the RBI. “[Coach Schulte] keeps giving me chances, and I finally came through for us. … When you get your chance, you’ve got to take it.”Boruta was another player who took advantage of her chances in Wednesday’s twilight matchup. She successfully moved Polito to second base with a picture-perfect sacrifice bunt in the first inning, before crushing a 220-foot double just left of dead-away centerfield in the second. She also bunted for a single in the third.”Being in the second position in the batting order, [sacrificing] is your role,” said Boruta. “When the first batter gets on, [you] move them over. Sacrifice bunting and bunting for a base hit is fine with me. It’s getting on base and moving a runner — you’re doing your job.” Boruta’s double in the second inning chalked up dirt from the warning track.”[The coaches] said that [the Flames pitcher] predominantly throws screwballs, so I backed off the plate,” said Boruta of her approach on that particular at-bat. “The first pitch was there, so I thought I’d take advantage of it, just get a hold of it, and not look where it went.”In a game in which the Badgers scored 11 runs and recorded just 12 outs at the plate, Eden Brock’s masterful performance at the mound was overshadowed. The junior pitcher was spectacular, scattering four hits in five innings and not walking a single batter.”She has been awesome,” said Schulte. “I think the last two weeks, Eden Brock has carried our team.”Alexis Garcia also shined for Wisconsin, walking three times and doubling sharply to left field in the second.On a night where everything went the Badgers’ way, the game was appropriately ended with a fantastic defensive play by Polito, the standout centerfielder. With two runners aboard in the fifth, she put out the Flames’ threat, charging forward to snag a liner and throwing to second base to double off the UIC runner.Schulte finally saw her team put together a complete victory, and as the Badgers head into the final stretch — their last six games are against conference competition — they will need to do more of the same to qualify for the Big Ten tournament.

The Orange’s defensive unit ranks 91st in the country, allowing 13.89 goals a game. To secure the NCAA tournament win that eluded it in 2017, SU will need to lock up Princeton’s (12-5, 6-1 Ivy League) 18th best attack (15.06 scores per contest) on Friday in Newton, Massachusetts. The matchup comes two weeks after Syracuse’s most recent game, playing UNC a second time in the ACC tournament and allowing 21 goals, SU’s worst defensive performance since its inaugural season. “(Man-to-man) is a lot of fun to play,” sophomore Lila Nazarian said. “It comes down to hard work … It ended up being a good fit for the athletes we have.” SU assistant coach Caitlin Defliese orchestrates the defense along with associate head coach Regy Thorpe. Caitlin, Kerry Defliese’s older sister, said that SU switched to a man-to-man scheme to better prepare itself for certain offenses. While the Orange anticipated a “mix” of matchup and zone strategies in the beginning of the year, players have said that SU has often utilized the man-to-man. Thorpe and Defliese assign each defender an attack for the game. It’s regarded as the “best-case scenario,” Nazarian said. If Syracuse finds itself on the wrong end of a breakaway, each defender won’t rotate to their designated player. The Orange benefits from film study to label every attack as a dodger, feeder or both. Defliese labeled the past week’s practices as “intense,” with SU using seven versus seven drills to replicate game scenarios.SU’s gameplan for Friday is centered around limiting Kyla Sears, the Tigers’ point-leader. A freshman, she’s tallied 78 points — 60 goals and 18 assists — which ranks 27th in the nation. Defliese said the Orange will designate one defender to limit Princeton’s biggest threat. “If we’re talking out there and we know what everyone is doing on the field,” junior defender and lone-returning starter Alexa Radziewicz said, “I think that’s when we click the best. We have moments when we do that.”Radziewicz said those “moments” materialize when the backline constantly communicates. She highlighted the Orange’s 17-15 upset of then-No.4 Florida on Mar. 7 as a standout game for the defense. SU scooped 15 ground balls, forced seven turnovers and held off a Gator comeback. Four days later against Maryland, however, Syracuse allowed 18 goals in a seven-goal blowout. “We’ve seen enough of our film to make adjustments on the ‘D-end,’” Gait said. “… That’s what we’ve spent this week working on.”SU has gone back to the “basics” throughout its last week of practice, alerting one another of ground balls and calling out who to box out after a shot attempt to get back to the level it exhibited in early March. For a defense replacing 75 percent of its regulars, the reps are inching the unit closer to the chemistry it has lacked at crucial moments. “We got to come together as a team,” Gait said. “We’re on a mission and have a goal. Last year, we got a little caught off guard. … This year, we’re dialed in. They’re ready to play.” Comments Facebook Twitter Google+ Published on May 11, 2018 at 7:35 am Contact Nick: nialvare@syr.edu | @nick_a_alvarez
North Carolina’s Ela Hazar turned a corner and saw two Syracuse defenders closing in on her. She peered over the defenders’ heads and saw Maggie Bill open in front of the crease. Bill caught Hazar’s pass, turned and shot, beating Asa Goldstock. Ella Simkins, the closest defender, slid late. Two minutes later, Bill held the ball at the point with Kerry Defliese fixed in front of her, the rest of the Orange defense fanned out around them. Bill faked right, dashed left and burst through SU’s interior. Lila Nazarian slid over, but she, too, was late. Both plays, just 32 seconds into the game, spawned from a familiar lapse in communication between the SU backline. “I think we really psyched ourselves out,” Defliese said a couple days removed from the 20-11 blowout loss on April 14. “I think maybe after the first two goals, we thought to ourselves, ‘Crap, this is UNC.’ … We start to be quiet and things start to shut down.” Head coach Gary Gait has said multiple times this season that his team’s success was predicated on chemistry and communication. The lack of the latter has been the root of SU’s (9-9, 1-6 Atlantic Coast) defensive inconsistency. A backline that’s featured three new starters — Mia DiBello, Defliese and Simkins — has relied primarily on a “man-to-man” scheme, SU players and coaches said, a year removed from Syracuse’s earliest NCAA tournament exit in over a decade. The consensus from coaches and players is that Syracuse’s new tactic has fared well. Yet, it’s had moments where its inexperience has been apparent.AdvertisementThis is placeholder textMORE COVERAGE:Syracuse women’s lacrosse opponent preview: What to know about PrincetonSyracuse’s ‘quarterback’ Asa Goldstock jump starts SU’s offensive sets
