For over 15 years there have been several working capital surveys that look into the past to try and determine the future. The only conclusion from these surveys is that the past is not a very good indicator of what will happen next. In this latest booklet I take a different angle. I look at the various tools, technologies and trends that are likely to affect working capital management in the coming years and highlight those factors that will reshape the skills and knowledge required to manage working capital effectively. Depending on where you are in the world and the industry in which you work only some of these factors may impact your business, but if you are unaware of the coming changes then you are more likely to become a victim of changing circumstance. Wouldn't it be better to be the early adopter that becomes the champion of the future?
