monday.com CFO Eliran Glazer highlights three vital priorities for 2025. First, he stresses that long-term efficiency must guide strategy. Instead of focusing solely on near-term investor demands, CFOs must structure financial planning like a marathon—mapping out sustainable growth through transparent scenario planning that accounts for macro uncertainties. Second, Glazer emphasized that CFOs need to become tech experts. With remote and hybrid work creating a surge in disconnected software tools, CFOs must champion integrated systems, unify data, and eliminate costly redundancies. Finally, Glazer underscored the increased need for real-time, data-driven insights. In a volatile market defined by inflation and local pressures, CFOs can no longer rely on static reports. They must deliver on-demand analytics and immediate forecasting to guide decisions around profitability, cost management, and risk.

• Sustainably grow through scenario planning for evolving macro trends
• Align technology to unify data and reduce costs
• Provide real-time insights to inform profitable decisions

By embracing these three priorities, CFOs can keep their organizations nimble, resilient, and primed for success in 2025. He concluded that CFOs who truly embrace these principles will remain central to the organization’s innovation, stakeholder confidence, and long-term business performance throughout 2025 and beyond.
