How to Get Visible as a Bookkeeper: Sage's Chris Downing on Confidence, Tech and Career Opportunities In this Leadership Takeover Session, Sage's Chris Downing shows bookkeepers and accountants exactly how to get more visible, build a reputation that feels authentic, and turn their experience into new opportunities – without pretending to be someone they're not. Drawing on 19 years in practice (from junior to partner) and his current role as the “voice of the accountant and bookkeeper” inside Sage, Chris explains what visibility really means, why it matters, and how to start even if you feel shy, busy or unsure what to say. Read the GoProposal by Sage guide on how to be an authoritative accountant (or bookkeeper) and establish trust https://goproposal.com/blog/trusted/?UTM_Source=6FB Hosted by Jo Wood and Zoe Whitman from The 6 Figure Bookkeeper, this episode goes behind the scenes with one of the most recognisable faces in the UK accounting tech space. You'll hear how early work experience, a love of technology and a focus on saving clients time led Chris to build a Business Intelligence department inside his firm, win Technology Champion of the Year, and ultimately move from practice into a senior role at Sage. Along the way he shares the mindset shifts that helped him speak at events, work with banks, and present to rooms full of peers – even when it felt nerve-wracking. You'll learn why visibility is not about showing off, but about being useful and relatable; how awards, case studies and collaboration with software partners can quietly raise your profile; and why the firms that grow fastest are usually the ones willing to share what they're doing well. Chris talks about saying yes (and sometimes no) to events, how he protects his time, and how he balances a busy internal role at Sage with being present at conferences, webinars and community meetups. For bookkeepers, he explains why your proximity to the numbers gives you huge commercial insight, why bookkeeping can feel lonely and how to build a supportive network with accountants and peers. He describes the “golden triangle” between the business owner, the accountant and the bookkeeper, and why collaboration – rather than competition – is where the real opportunity lies as MTD and digitisation reshape the profession. This is essential viewing for bookkeepers who want to stop being “brilliant but invisible”, share their expertise with confidence, and build a long-term career that can grow in whatever direction they choose. ----------------------------------------------- About us We're Jo and Zoe and we help bookkeepers find clients, make more money and build profitable businesses they love.

In this episode I'm going to do something a little different. As we wind down for the year, we're going to be running some of our favorites from 2025 until the new year begins.Let's take a look back at some of the overall themes discussed and point out a few highlights for me. I won't be able to highlight everything of course but I found 5 themes really interesting. And, I won't lie - I had a little help from AI in doing this. But that's also kind of the point. We have all been using AI to do things to make our work easier, and I thought that poring through 150+ episodes recorded over 12 months is a perfect thing to have AI help me with.

AI is saving contact centers time, but is it actually making life better for agents? In this episode of Working Smarter, Dave Hoekstra chats with Steve Morrell from ContactBabel about new research into agent burnout, the evolving role of the agent, and what really happens when productivity goes up but KPIs don't change. From AI-powered self-service and agent assist to analytics that tell us why customers are calling, they explore whether time saved is being reinvested wisely, or quietly driving new pressures. The conversation also digs into manager empathy, agent empowerment, and why up to 25% of call time is still spent hunting for information, proving that the data is there, but we may be asking the wrong questions.

In dieser Folge sprechen wir über die Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Planung (GOP 3.0), die der Bundesverband Deutscher Unternehmensberatungen (BDU) 2022 veröffentlicht hat. Während es in der Buchhaltung seit Jahrzehnten klare Standards gibt, herrscht in der Unternehmensplanung oft „Freestyle". Die GOP wollen diese Lücke schließen und zeigen, welche Mindestanforderungen eine professionelle Planung erfüllen sollte. Besonders relevant wird das Thema durch das StaRUG (Unternehmensstabilisierungs- und Restrukturierungsgesetz), das seit 2021 alle haftungsbeschränkten Unternehmen zur Krisenfrüherkennung verpflichtet. Unser Gast: Prof. Dr. Werner Gleißner - Vorstand der FutureValue Group AG - Honorarprofessor für Betriebswirtschaftslehre (Schwerpunkt Risikomanagement) an der TU Dresden - Vorstand der EACVA (European Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts) - Vorstand der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Krisenmanagement (DGfKM) Key Learnings - Planung braucht Struktur: GOP setzen klare Mindeststandards für eine ordnungsgemäße Unternehmensplanung. - Ganzheitlichkeit ist Pflicht: GuV, Bilanz und Cashflow müssen integriert geplant werden. - Ziel ≠ Erwartung: Erwartungswerte für Entscheidungen, Zielwerte für die Steuerung. - Krisenfrüherkennung ist Pflicht: StaRUG gilt für alle GmbHs seit 2021. - GOP als gesetzliche Basis: GOP-konforme Planung ermöglicht wirksame Krisenprävention. - Auch für den Mittelstand machbar: Eine schrittweise Umsetzung ist realistisch.

Budgetierung: Planung oder Verhaltenssteuerung? Beides geht nicht. Die klassische Budgetierung steht vor einem fundamentalen Dilemma: Sie soll realistische Planung ermöglichen UND gleichzeitig ehrgeizige Ziele für variable Vergütungen setzen. Zwei Aufgaben, die sich widersprechen. Im Performance Manager Podcast spricht Peter Bluhm mit Prof. Dr. Thorsten Knauer von der Ruhr Universität Bochum über das Schwerpunktthema der aktuellen Ausgabe der Fachzeitschrift Controlling: - Wie gehen über 300 deutsche Unternehmen damit um? - Was zeigen Labor-Experimente über "Budgetary Slack"? - Können KI-gestützte Simulationen helfen, Manager zu realistischerer Planung zu bewegen? Brauchen wir einen komplett neuen Steuerungsansatz?

Die neue Deloitte CFO Survey zeigt: Deutschland verliert deutlich an Attraktivität. - Nur 47 % der Unternehmen wollen ihr Unternehmenshauptquartier in zwei Jahren noch in Deutschland behalten (heute: 85 %). - In der Automobilindustrie fällt die Bedeutung des Produktionsstandorts von 80 % auf 13 %. - 75 % des verarbeitenden Gewerbes erwarten keinen Effekt vom Investitionspaket. Während die Industrie kämpft, wächst der Dienstleistungssektor – die deutsche Wirtschaft spaltet sich zunehmend. Im Gespräch mit Dr. Alexander Börsch analysieren wir die Entwicklung und klären, was CFOs und Controller jetzt tun können.

In dieser Episode spreche ich mit Dr. Manuel Vermeer über Indien als Investitionsstandort. Dr. Vermeer ist Sinologe, Deutsch-Inder und berät seit über 25 Jahren europäische Unternehmen im Asien-Geschäft. Wir diskutieren die aktuelle geopolitische Lage mit Trump-Zöllen und der Annäherung zwischen Indien und China. Dr. Vermeer erklärt, welche Bedeutung BRICS und De-Dollarisierung für Unternehmen haben. Im Gespräch geht es um die zentralen Fragen für CFOs und Controller: Für wen ist Indien interessant? Was sind die finanziellen und steuerlichen Besonderheiten? Welche Risiken gibt es? Wie findet man die richtigen Partner und wie geht man mit kulturellen Unterschieden um? Macht eine Kombination aus Indien und China Sinn? Zum Abschluss spricht Dr. Vermeer über typische Fehler deutscher Unternehmen und gibt einen Ausblick auf die Entwicklung der kommenden Jahre.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Yakir Golan, CEO and Co-founder of Kovrr, a global leader in cyber and AI risk quantification. Drawing from his early career in Israeli intelligence and later roles in software, hardware, and product management, Yakir explains how his background shaped his holistic approach to understanding complex, interconnected risk systems.Yakir breaks down why quantifying AI and cyber risk—rather than relying on subjective, color-coded scoring—is becoming essential for enterprise leaders, boards, and regulators. He explains how Kovrr's new AI Risk Assessment and Quantification module helps organizations model real financial exposure, understand high-impact “tail risks,” and align security, GRC, and finance teams around a shared, objective language.Looking ahead, Yakir discusses how global regulation, including the EU AI Act, is accelerating the need for measurable, defensible risk management. He outlines a future where AI risk quantification becomes a board-level expectation and a foundation for resilient, responsible innovation. Through Kovrr's mission, Yakir aims to equip enterprises with the same level of intelligence-driven decision making once reserved for national security—now applied to the rapidly evolving digital risk landscape.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In den 80ern stand Bilbao vor dem Abgrund: Smog, Gewalt, 25% Arbeitslosigkeit. Dann kam das Guggenheim-Museum. Ein mutiger Wurf, der als Größenwahn galt – und eine ganze Stadt veränderte. Viele Unternehmen behandeln Business Intelligence wie eine weitere IT-Initiative. Dabei könnte es ihr „Guggenheim" sein: Der zentrale Taktgeber, der alle Bereiche in Bewegung bringt. In Podcast erkläre ich, warum BI-Projekte oft im Projektdschungel untergehen – und wie der Bilbao-Effekt auch bei Datenprojekten funktioniert.

In wenigen Tagen erscheint im Controller Magazin ein ausführliches Interview mit Peter Bluhm – 29.600 Zeichen über ein Thema, das in den Projekten bei ATVISIO oft eine zentrale und erfolgsentscheidende Rolle spielt: die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Controlling und IT. Regelmäßig erleben die Consultants von ATVISIO in Kick-off-Meetings für neue BI-Projekte typische Spannungen zwischen den beiden Bereichen. Der Controlling-Leiter fordert schnelle Ergebnisse – „Wir brauchen das Dashboard bis Monatsende!" – während der IT-Leiter auf klare Spezifikationen besteht: „Ohne vernünftige Spezifikation läuft hier gar nichts." Im Interview berichtet Peter Bluhm aus über 20 Jahren Beratungserfahrung in Business Intelligence und Data Management. Eine Situation beschreibt er besonders eindrücklich: Ein Controlling-Leiter spricht von einer „IT-Diktatur", während der IT-Leiter im selben Unternehmen vom „Excel-Chaos" im Controlling spricht. Für Peter Bluhm ist das kein Einzelfall, sondern ein systematisches Muster – und genau darüber spricht er im Interview mit dem Controller Magazin.
Durante años hemos pensado que el BIM iba de muros, ventanas y geometrías. Pero el invitado de hoy viene a desmontar ese mito con gráficos, métricas y un Power BI bajo el brazo. Porque, al final, el modelo no es solo geometría: es información. Y la información, cuando se entiende, vale más que el render más bonito. En este episodio hablamos con Israel Álvarez, ingeniero de telecomunicaciones, máster en Big Data y Business Intelligence, y —para sorpresa de muchos— uno de los tipos que mejor entiende cómo el análisis de datos puede darle una nueva dimensión al BIM. Power BI, Speckle, dashboards, datos estructurados y gobernanza: bienvenido al episodio más nerdamente delicioso que ha pasado por BIMrras. ¡Bienvenido al episodio 192 de BIMrras!

Stillstand im digitalen Reifegrad Die Untersuchung zeigt: Der digitale Reifegrad der Immobilienbranche stagniert nahezu. Gleichzeitig sind die Investitionen deutlich zurückgegangen – nur noch 7 % der Unternehmen investieren mehr als 20 % ihres Umsatzes in Digitalisierung, im Vorjahr waren es noch 19 % der Unternehmen. Hindernisse und neue Treiber Mentalität, Widerstände und organisatorische Strukturen bremsen viele Unternehmen weiterhin aus.

Most think that algorithms are the modern root cause of innovations. But says not only are organizations today powered by data, they innovate through data. With several other colleagues, Marta is bringing data studies back to the forefront of information systems research. She produces workshops, a forthcoming book, and an online bibliography with seminal readings. We talk to Marta about the relationship between data and meaning, representation versus innovation, and whether we all soon live in a hyperreality created through synthetic data that lost all connection to the real-world.

Traditional AR and AP finance is no longer enough. With evolving disclosure requirements, tariff pressures, and increasing supplier expectations, treasurers must deliver liquidity and visibility with fewer resources while managing heavier supplier demands. In this episode, Sean VanGundy and Jeremy Reedus join Craig Jeffery from Strategic Treasurer and Michel Abranches from Monkey Tech (Money is Key) to explore how working capital 2.0 helps treasurers move beyond one-size-fits-all programs. They discuss how hybrid approaches, such as auction-based supplier financing for lower rates alongside automated dynamic discounting, can optimize AR and AP, strengthen supplier adoption, and deliver measurable EBITDA impact.

Der Performance Manager Podcast | Für Controller & CFO, die noch erfolgreicher sein wollen
1952 löste Grace Hopper ein Problem, das heute in jedem Unternehmen existiert. Die IT spricht von ETL-Prozessen und Data Warehouses. Das Controlling denkt in KPIs und Forecasts. Das Marketing fokussiert sich auf Conversion-Rates. Alle sprechen eine andere „Datensprache“ - genau wie damals die unverständlichen Maschinencodes. Grace Hoppers Lösung? Der Compiler - ein Übersetzer zwischen Mensch und Maschine. Was Unternehmen heute brauchen: Einen Compiler für ihre BI-Projekte. Jemanden, der zwischen den Abteilungen dolmetscht und aus scheinbar gegensätzlichen Anforderungen eine gemeinsame Lösung entwickelt. Im aktuellen Podcast zeige ich, woran Sie echte BI-Kompetenz erkennen - und warum die meisten Berater zu schnell mit Softwarevorschlägen kommen.
In this special Cloud Wars interview, Oracle Executive Vice President for Applications Development Steve Miranda joins Bob Evans to discuss how Oracle's transformation from CloudWorld to AI World signals a seismic leap in enterprise technology. Miranda shares how Oracle has delivered more than 600 agents, launched the Agent Studio and Marketplace, and unified AI capabilities across its Fusion Applications and industry verticals. The result: a powerful convergence of data, intelligence, and automation driving the next wave of business transformation.AI-driven EnterpriseThe Big Themes:Oracle's Next Seismic Shift: Oracle's renaming of CloudWorld to AI World isn't a branding exercise, it's a declaration. Just as “OpenWorld” and “CloudWorld” reflected past technology revolutions, “AI World” marks Oracle's belief that AI represents a shift of even greater magnitude. Miranda describes this era as one where automation and intelligence redefine enterprise operations. Oracle's applications division is now delivering hundreds of AI-driven agents and features at unprecedented speed.Agents Everywhere: In just two years, Oracle has gone from announcing 50 generative AI features to delivering over 600 agents across its Fusion and vertical applications. These agents automate tasks, surface insights, and optimize processes, often eliminating manual decision-making entirely. Oracle's rapid release cadence (quarterly updates backed by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)) means customers constantly inherit new capabilities without disruption.OCI, the Engine: Oracle's leadership in hosting and training large language models within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) gives its applications a built-in edge. Customers automatically benefit from the latest AI tools, performance improvements, and model upgrades without manual migration. OCI's second-generation architecture, featuring Exadata, cloud-native identity, and networking, delivers both reliability and continuous innovation.The Big Quote: “For many of our customers, it's great timing to have AI delivery, because they've gone live. They've gone through multiple phases. They're on the cloud. They're used to getting quarterly updates. Now, this is a big thing, but they're used to that people part of the transformation."

Der Performance Manager Podcast | Für Controller & CFO, die noch erfolgreicher sein wollen
„Daten sind das neue Öl“ – diese Metapher ist längst abgenutzt. Die eigentliche Frage ist: Wie schaffen es Unternehmen, aus ihren Datenbeständen echten Wert zu schöpfen? Und welche Rolle spielen Controller dabei? Die neue Ausgabe 5/2025 der Fachzeitschrift Controlling zeigt vier unterschiedliche Wege zur datengesteuerten Organisation. Von systematischen Use Case-Bewertungen, die Subjektivität bei Daten-Projekten vermeiden, über modulare Data Mesh-Architekturen, die zentralisierte Data Warehouses herausfordern bis hin zu Knowledge Graphs, die neue Möglichkeiten der Unternehmenssteuerung eröffnen. Dazu kommt ein oft übersehener Aspekt: Controller sollen lernen, ihre Zahlen zu erzählen – Data Storytelling als Brücke zwischen komplexen Analysen und verständlicher Kommunikation. Die zentrale Erkenntnis: Controller werden nicht zu reinen Datenexperten, sondern müssen ihre bewährte Rolle als Business Partner um technische Kompetenzen erweitern. Doch wo liegt die Balance zwischen Effizienz und organisatorischen Herausforderungen? Darüber spricht ATVISIO-Geschäftsführer Peter Bluhm im Performance Manager Podcast mit Prof. Dr. Ulrike Baumöl von der Universität St. Gallen, Mitherausgeberin der Zeitschrift Controlling.
It's raining, it's pouring, what vital business intelligence are you ignoring? The next explosive area of business opportunity and risk may well be weather forecasting. The opportunity will accrue to those owners and entrepreneurs who understand that a new era of meteorology has dawned and view weather forecasting as an inextricable form of business intelligence. The risk is that myopic executives may cling to the mistaken notion that weather forecasts — “notoriously inaccurate” — are only about what to wear, how the morning commute might be impacted, and if they should bring along an umbrella when the go outside. In his new book, Cloud Warriors: Deadly Storms, Climate Chaos―and the Pioneers Creating a Revolution in Weather Forecasting, veteran journalist Thomas E. “Tom” Weber debunks two prevalent myths: 1.) That weather forecasts are frequently way off, and 2.) That the weather doesn't have an impact on almost every company, directly or indirectly. Tom is the former executive editor at TIME who oversaw the magazine's cover stories and feature journalism. Earlier in his career, he served as a technology reporter, columnist, and bureau chief at The Wall Street Journal. Powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the internet of things, weather forecasting — even micro forecasts confined to small geographic areas — has become vastly more accurate. Importantly, better forecasting saves lives by correctly predicting threatening hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, and floods well in advance and preventing catastrophic damage to vital infrastructure. Savvy companies — big and small — are already investing in weather intelligence, and the imperative for those who have yet to get on board will only grow in the years ahead.

Künstliche Intelligenz muss nicht komplex und teuer sein, um echten Mehrwert zu schaffen. Das beweist die Mehrer Compression GmbH eindrucksvoll: Das traditionsreiche Industrieunternehmen hat sein Servicegeschäft durch clevere KI-Anwendungen grundlegend transformiert – ohne teure Sensoren oder komplizierte Automatisierung. Mehrer Compression ist ein über 130 Jahre alter Spezialist für Kompressoren in Industrieanwendungen. Das Servicegeschäft macht die Hälfte des Umsatzes aus – war aber bisher rein reaktiv organisiert und damit nicht mehr zukunftsfähig. Anstatt auf vollautomatische Systeme zu setzen, wählte Mehrer einen schrittweisen Ansatz: Mit intelligenten Prognosemodellen können sie heute Service- und Ersatzteilbedarf vorhersagen. Das Ergebnis: deutlich bessere Lagerhaltung und optimierter Kundenservice. Jens Elfert, Bereichsleiter Finanzen und Personal bei der Mehrer Compression, berichtet über eine praxisnahe Geschichte digitaler Transformation im Mittelstand – ohne Buzzwords und mit konkreten Learnings für CFOs, Controller und IT-Verantwortliche.
