WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.921 Good day! I'd like to welcome you to today's webinar focusing on how a modern CPM environment can put the Finance function in the driver's seat. My name is Aileen McPherson 2 00:00:09.922 --> 00:00:21.000 and I'm the director of marketing for North America at CCH Tagetik and I will be your host for this session. Agile Finance function need adaptable planning, budgeting and forecasting systems. 3 00:00:21.001 --> 00:00:29.765 The legacy system that Rockefeller Foundation used for B&P was neither responsive, nor dynamic enough to meet their growing needs. This webinar will discuss how 4 00:00:29.766 --> 00:00:39.685 a unified planning, budgeting and forecasting system in the cloud and developed from the outset with an enhanced user-experience in mind, boosted the Rockefeller Foundation's productivity 5 00:00:40.901 --> 00:00:45.939 and gave one finance function the independence it needed to be the 'master of its own destiny', 6 00:00:45.940 --> 00:00:50.977 while meeting the demanding and granular requirements of Human Capital and Salary Planning. 7 00:00:54.625 --> 00:01:03.097 I'm very pleased to welcome today's speakers: Irena Di Mario from the Rockefeller Foundation, who's the manager of financial reporting, and Harjot Ghai, 8 00:01:03.098 --> 00:01:11.569 who is the Chief Operating Officer at Obero Solutions, a partner of CCH Tagetik.
