The technology decisions made across finance and accounting can have a direct impact on payroll, from system integrations and reporting to automation and workforce management.
PayrollOrg has an opportunity to establish visibility with a highly targeted CFO and C-suite audience that aligns with PayrollOrg's long-term goal of elevating payroll's strategic role within organizations.
During the November 18-19 FATE (Finance and Accounting Technology Expo) conference at the Javits Center in New York City, executive-level payroll industry speakers will present to the conference's CFO audience on “Payroll's Strategic Value to the CFO” on Day 1, from 3:40 p.m.–4:05 p.m. ET in Theater 6.
This session will examine how payroll is evolving beyond an operational function into a strategic business partner with growing influence at the executive level.
