Deloitte's Kunkleman: Fixing Finance Companies aren't doing enough to foster finance professionals, and young graduates aren't seeing finance as the path to success, according to Deloitte Consulting's new global survey, "The Finance Talent Challenge: How Leading CFOs are Taking Charge." The report provides insight and suggestions into finding and retaining talent in the finance world. Ken Kunkleman, a director with Deloitte Consulting who spearheaded the project, spoke with Consulting about the report and the firm's suggestions for change.
Consulting: Why did you decide to take on this project?
Kunkleman: We have a group that we call the global finance transformation team. That group gathers to think about things on more of a global basis, and one of the areas of interest was doing some primary research [on] finance talent. We went fairly carefully about deciding what can we ask, what might be interesting to ask. The net result is what we have, which is a very well-responded-to global survey that truly is representative of a global set of findings around finance talent.
