Clear Insight Newsletter
July 2014

Greetings! 

With the launch of our July newsletter we are quickly moving into the second half of 2014 and Q3 for many of you.

Perhaps this was the year to upgrade to a true financial planning and reporting solution and reduce your dependency on spreadsheets.   For others it was the year to upgrade your old version of Clarity and move to Cognos.  If you're in one of these categories time is of the essence and we can help.

Leverage this newsletter's articles, our blog, our YouTube channel and then reach out and talk to us.   Our business is to help you gain back Time, Control and Confidence in all areas of the office of finance.

All the best for a great July.

On behalf of Clear Insight - Happy Reading and Watching!

CxOs say they work more closely with the CFO than with any other C-suite colleague except the CEO. And CEOs rely more heavily
on the CFO than on the rest of the C-suite when they're formulating business strategy.


Recent events have reinforced the CFO's elevated status. The CFOs that were interviewed stated almost everything they do has become more important over the past three years...
