In this podcast, Stephen Dowling, Founder and CEO of ETM considers why the accountancy and finance professional needs to develop their digital skills and the steps that they need to take to ensure that they remain relevant. He considers the importance of learning and unlearning in this context. Digital transformation is one of the key conversations around businesses at present. The evolution of the business model has an impact on us as accountancy and finance professionals from the way that we collect, verify and utilise increasing volumes of data. In a survey with over 4,200 ACCA members, affiliates and students we reviewed the digital skills that a professional needs to be relevant, as expressed by ACCA’s digital quotient; one seven quotients that define the skills needed. In the report "The Digital Accountant – digital skills in a transformed world," we explore the results and provide guidance on growing the necessary skills and knowledge.
