Too Busy to Save Time?


    Calling all Finance professionals! Are you too busy to save time?

    Breaking the Busyness Trap: How Automation Can Boost Productivity

    As a CFO or Finance Leader, you’re likely juggling countless tasks – from financial reporting and compliance to strategic planning. The sheer volume of responsibilities can be overwhelming, and it’s easy to mistake busyness for productivity.

    But being busy does not always mean the same thing as being productive.

    In fact, being constantly preoccupied can become a problem – a paradoxical spiral that’s difficult to break free from.

    The anxiety associated with constant deadlines and organisational pressure shuts out productivity improvement ideas – because you think you’re too busy to deal with this right now.

    How Do We Break This Cycle?

    First off, understand that to be productive, you need to find ways to use your time as efficiently as possible.

    One way to do this is to set up the right systems in place to help you streamline your work and save you time.

    According to a McKinsey report titled “The social economy: Unlocking value and productivity through social technologies”, interaction workers spend nearly 20% of their workweek searching for internal information or tracking down colleagues who can assist with specific tasks. This highlights how much time is lost to inefficient processes that could be streamlined through automation.

    The Benefits of Automation

    Implementing a robust financial management system or enterprise resource planning (ERP) software can transform how you work. Here are some tangible benefits:

    • Reduced time spent on manual data entry and reconciliation
    • Increased accuracy by eliminating human error
    • Faster access to critical business data for decision-making
    • Enhanced productivity by allowing your team to focus on high-value tasks

    Is This You?

    Do you spend too much time on manual processes and getting to data?

    Do you have to manually rekey or upload information from other systems?

    Is data not at your fingertips, resulting in hours of manual data manipulation?

    Nodding your head?

    The Cost of Delay

    The myth that says “if you’re too busy to do something right now, it can be put off until later” should be put to rest.

    Why?

    Because delaying your system implementation will cumulatively lead to more wasted time and lost opportunities in the long run.

    If implemented early, not only will your new system help you get a better handle on your finances and business processes but will also save you time to focus on other things that matter.

    Don’t Miss Out on the Benefits

    Nobody wants to do manual or repetitive work. But everyone in your finance team wants to add value – and you’ll only be able to do that by being less busy.

    If you keep delaying a new system implementation, you’ll miss out on heaps of benefits.

    You’ll end up in the vicious circle of playing catch-up – a process that can be both costly and complicated.

    Ready to Make the Change?

    Don’t let outdated processes hold you back. Take control of your productivity by implementing a financial management system that does the heavy lifting for you.

    Ready to make the change? Let’s talk.

    In summary, don’t let your busyness get in the way of your productivity. Bite the bullet, implement that new system, and enjoy all the benefits it has to offer.
