June 17 @ 11:00 am - 11:30 am
Summer can be a demanding season for finance teams. While many departments slow down, finance is often at its busiest—managing mid-year reviews, initiating budget planning, and operating with limited staffing due to time off.

In this session, she shares her approach to maintaining operational stability, supporting her team, and leveraging tools that create flexibility without sacrificing accountability.
