Roles and Responsibilities
Vice President - Corporate Performance Management and Financial Management Systems. As part of the administrative applications, compliance and business intelligence teams, I look after the research areas for everything that is CFO-related. I am the North American lead for these areas and focus on how to bring a technology solution into an enterprise, including the software, services and change management that will be required to achieve business value.
Previous Experience
I have spent many years on the fence between the IT and Finance organizations, alternating back and forth several times over my 23 year career. I was a user, developer and implementer of financial management and operational applications. I have also worked for a software firm as VP of Strategy and spent over 5 years as an industry analyst in my focus areas. I have had positions that bought, sold and researched financial management technologies. This brings a unique perspective to my role at Gartner as Industry Analyst.
