Erik’s vision:

  • Supporting a company’s management teams is at the core of Finance & Control’s priorities and should be taken on with firm resolve, a clear shared agenda and an open mind for best practices application from relevant areas that Finance & Control professionals are unfortunately not yet commonly accustomed to. Business Intelligence & Analytics and Business Information communication being both examples of such relevant areas.
  • Business Intelligence & Analytics (BI&A) can serve as the enabler for delivering strong and enduring improvements by positioning BI&A-professionals as the ‘linking-pins’ between a company’s IT- and the Business communities.
  • Combining soundly applied Performance Management, appropriate usage of Business Intelligence & Analytics with an uniformly applied concept for all business communication will ultimately lead to the best results.
  • “Things should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler” (quote by: Albert Einstein).
