Create strategic value and become a game-changing leader in finance

LIF - T STRATEGIC FINANCE LEADERS PROGRAM  

ELEVATE YOUR PROFILE AND LEAD THE FUTURE OF FINANCE

The role of finance has changed. More than ever you have the opportunity to influence strategy, empower your team and reach successful outcomes. Yet, it can be hard to let go of old habits that are no longer helpful, and not get stuck in the weeds.  

How does finance embed itself in strategy and what changes can you make that deliver the greatest difference?

How can you navigate change and complex problems confidently and make a real impact in your organisation?

How do you tap into enablers of your team, including appropriate frameworks, management tools, technology and culture?

That’s why we developed the Strategic Finance Leaders Program. Working with high performing peers and world-class facilitators, you will bring strategy and results to life through your innovative leadership and execution.

WHAT'S OUR DIFFERENCE?

Our program is about implementation.

We will work with you from where ever you are now to diagnose your opportunities to level up, navigate roadblocks and celebrate milestones on the road to success. Our program includes learning and growth workshops, weekly practical problem-solving sessions and a set of deliverables that help you genuinely make headway in your career and role. 

Our expert team include professionals managing strategy, tech and finance projects every day - meaning you are only one step away from speaking with a leader who can help you progress in any aspect of 'strategic finance leadership'.

We have worked with hundreds of finance professionals in their development as leaders, partners and change-agents.

If you come on this journey to lift your performance, you will go through the following phases:


DEEP DIVE - Set up for success


Immersion into strategy & leadership to guarantee your personal growth

CURRENT STATE OF PLAY


Identify the real problems, what success looks like & focus on the right outcomes

PLANNING & MAPPING


Design the steps to execute your change plan and reach successful outcomes

EXECUTION - Reach your goals


Surpass roadblocks, celebrate milestones and make your plan come to life

IS OUR PROGRAM RIGHT FOR YOU?

This is what our information session will determine but let us start by saying that we don’t play the numbers game. We keep our cohort small to deliver a unique experience and we only work with highly motivated individuals who want to level up.

Here are some points to consider before you book to join a session : 

Our Program is for finance leaders who: 

  • Are serious about making a difference in their business 
  • Are ready to challenge themselves to grow and change 
  • Want to shape and drive business strategy through their financial acumen 
  • Want to be the best leader they can be, inspire their people and engage them in their development 

Our Program is not for finance leaders who: 

  • Want to be known for reporting and getting tasks done 
  • Are reluctant to change through action and more focused on the knowing 
  • Believe that numbers drive strategy in isolation 
  • Need their people to get stuff done at the cost of performance and engagement

The team at The Outperformer were genuinely interested in supporting our growth

"The Outperformer put together a superb program that covered the breadth and depth of the finance function and presented it in an easily digestible format that could be accessed remotely.  It is a unique and tailored experience, the facilitators were constantly tweaking their approach to ensure that any queries were resolved.""

Karma Auden, Director - Finance and Business Services - Canberra University

The Program has helped improve my standing with key stakeholders

"Rather than taking a narrow view and getting lost in the details, my mindset has now shifted to take into account the “WHY” of every decision and its impact on long-term growth of the company, therefore creating strategic value.

It’s great to see my assessments being sought after, and my recommendations being put into practice.  The Senior Leadership Team has shown confidence and trust in my abilities, which I am sure will enable me to continue to lead strategic projects in the future."

Zeal Trivedi, Commercial Advisory Manager - TOMRA

The Outperformer helped me adopt a proactive approach on strategy execution and leadership

"Since undertaking this course, my profile in the business has raised immensely with the CEO and other leaders. I now feel confident in my ability to identify gaps in strategy and to create alignment in our daily tasks to help achieve business goals. I’m proud to have been praised for my ability to manage others to deliver genuine strategic outcomes and recognised for thinking strategically."

Kate Urlich, Finance Business Partner - Carman's

The practicality of the sessions has been a point of difference from other L&D programs

"We’re often stuck within our own ‘bubble’ in terms of best practice and innovation, but hearing about how other teams are operating along with some valuable learnings from the experts in the field has given us a bar to aim at.

 Just seeing ‘what good looks like’ and having the practical application left to the team to work through has been eye-opening for a lot of junior and emerging members within our team.  "

Kevin Sampath, Head of Finance & Planning - Hudson

This program sparks constructive thinking and collaboration within the finance community 

"The Outperformer really knows how to challenge thinking and concepts, and facilitate all the learning sessions thanks to their expert knowledge. Our team has enjoyed having their thinking stretched through stimulating conversations with the facilitators and other participants.

It also helped formulate possibilities on data, modelling and automation, as well as diving more deeply and confidently into setting, shaping and implementing strategy. "

Steph Joachim, Finance Director 

It’s so easy to get caught in your BAU and forget about strategy, now I make time for it.

The program reminded me of the importance of "stepping on the balcony" to make observations. It has also helped me take full ownership of my role and involvement within the organisation to lead change in the strategy space.

Adopting a strategic thinking focus has led me to manage synergy, hypothesis and rationale on M & A targets that I used to positively influence and align with senior stakeholders around those decisions and reach great outcomes.

Paul Lobanov, Head of Supply Chain Finance - DuluxGroup
