Abstract
In this Chapter the need and the reasons for a high performance organization (HPO) and a high performance finance function (HPFF) are discussed. The finance function is defined, its most important tasks processes, activities described, and its challenges in modern-day organizations reviewed. The current situation of most finance functions – which can be described as a “blood, sweat, and tears” environment which can just satisfy basic requirements of internal clients and external stakeholders – is compared to the desired HPFF state. A schematic reading guide is given and the justification for the book – the reason why it is important and how it came into being – starts the reader on the exciting journey toward high performance.
