Elevated the Role of Finance Leaders to become Strategic Business Partners

A creative, inspiring training that really stretched my team in the development of their leadership skills and understanding of practical ‘tools’ required to lead change and add tangible business value.
Group CFO
Case for Change
A European Healthcare Group realised the need and opportunity in building the leadership skills of its Finance organisation. The role of the CFO and the Finance Function had undergone a profound transformation in recent years. Finance leaders needed to be more dynamic and able to translate intelligence into insights that guide operational decision making and strategic choices.
Shared Vision
To transform finance leaders into value architects; catalysts for driving business transformation amidst change, able to use data to challenge the business and operating as strategic business partners with responsibility for driving company results.
Feasible Plan
We ran interviews with business leaders to understand the opportunities vs. performance. This informed the design of an experiential 2 day training to develop the 3 key elements of successful business partnership: Leadership Capabilities, Excellence in Finance and Managing Change. Absolute clarity of roles across the team were established with a cascade from mission to team and individual action plans to deliver results.
Capability to Deliver
We conducted a post course ‘After Action Review’ with the CFO and key participants to refine Action Plans and identify ongoing requirements such as a Functional Capability Plan & Finance Training Programme. The future training plan was then established for ongoing development of / excellence in the Group's Finance Capabilities.

Created Value by Identifying Cost Transformation Opportunities
There are consultants who are very strategic - beautiful thinking, analysis and bring a great plan for someone else to execute. There are consultants who are mainly in the execution part and bring significant value there. And there are those who sit in the middle, who operationalise their strategies and bring them down to earth. I see Kinetic operating at all three levels. I would highly recommend Kinetic to a friend; I would not recommend Kinetic to a competitor.

Step Changed Growth by Exploring and Prioritising Product Portfolio Choices
The approach that you provided was simple to understand, all the team were involved throughout and the speed at which we did it was - for me - unbelievable, especially compared to the hours and hours and multiple Excel files we used in the other Business Units. I was just amazed at the quality for the output.
