Why Does Finance and Administration Consume Your Time?

Updated: May 19, 2016

We’ve all seen it: an employee hands over a large amount of data or reports, expecting someone to parse through them to find the important information. However, the executive is overwhelmed by the data and can’t find this information because he or she didn’t even know the purpose of the report. At Consero Global, we strive to make sure this never happens. That’s why we constantly reinforce the role of finance: to provide clarity and understanding to business owners so that they can confidently make decisions. In this video, Bill Klein, President of Consero Global, elaborates more on the role of finance and back office administration.
