Beyond the day-to-day - March 24

In this webinar, join Russell Frayne, Director of Transformation at Gravita, Richard Woolgar, Head of Outsourcing at Armstrong Watson, and Olivia McMillan, COO at iplicit, on Thursday 28th August at 11am as they’ll go beyond the software and focus on what really drives (and blocks) transformation.

For many finance leaders, switching from entry-level or legacy systems feels like stepping into the unknown. Even when you know your current setup is holding you back, the fear of disruption, failure, or blame can stop change before it even starts. 

You’ll learn how to overcome the psychological barriers that make change feel harder than it is and leave with the tools to lead your team through it with clarity and confidence. 

What you'll learn: 

• Why staying put can feel safer, even when it’s not 

• How to reframe risk, reduce decision fatigue and manage overwhelm 

• The hidden cultural and operational cost of doing nothing 

• Strategies from behavioural psychology to help you lead change well and build trust along the way 

• Real-life insights from finance leaders who’ve done it themselves
