Your success in business rests on the daily translation of new knowledge into better decisions, increased value and a sustainable world.

EMERGING BUSINESS, ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE CAREERS
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE ANALYST
Accountants and other business professionals will play a larger role in interpreting the overall value and integrity of business data, including automated digital information collected in real time by networks of Internet of Things sensors. Traditional audit and assurance roles will expand into more predictive analytics, and accountants will be asked to provide actionable intelligence and advice on business decisions.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION COORDINATOR
As fulfillment centers gain more precision — from both analytics and automation — a new type of supply chain professional will choreograph each shipment from custom packaging to customer contact at the point of delivery, via drone or Lyft type service.
ESG RESOURCE, INNOVATION AND RISK INTEGRATION MANAGER
As machine learning offers better insights on when, where and how to best resource raw materials, human talent, and relationships, the scope of risk management will broaden and take on an even higher priority. Manager roles will grow among suppliers, manufacturers and the financial analysts who guide the flow of capital, at both the institutional and retail level.
