CFO's have their finger on the pulse on what is happening within an Organisation, but seem to be missing the total workforce view, i particular the External Workforce.

Lack of this visibility is starting to show up in work decisions, in particular ai taking over components of previously human Workforce. And a lot of these decisions are failing, due to not clearly understanding the work in the 1st place.

Check out this article where we highlight what questions CFO's should be asking:

We explore why 2026 is the year, your CFO is going to ask some specific questions on your total workforce including external work visibility.

2026, making the external workforce visible isn’t a nice-to-have anymore. It has to happen.

As we enter 2026, a simple question still catches many leadership teams off guard: Who is actually doing the work in their Organisations?

Right-sizing will continue to be part of organisational life.
That isn’t changing.

What can change is whether it’s done by default or by design.

The organisations that succeed won’t be the ones that cut fastest. They’ll be the ones that understand work deeply enough to make better decisions, for their people, their business, and the society they operate in.

Because right-sizing isn’t really about reducing numbers.

It’s about understanding what matters.

Too often, right-sizing has been used as a euphemism for reduction, driven by headcount targets, short-term financial pressure & investor narratives.

Skills tell us what people are capable of.

Tasks tell us how work actually gets done.

In 2026, organisations that succeed won’t abandon skills-based thinking, they’ll complete it.

By anchoring workforce decisions in tasks, they create a clearer line between strategy, delivery, and value and unlock more responsible choices about people, technology, and partners.

Because work doesn’t happen at a framework level.

It happens task by task.

Tasks tell us how work actually gets done. In 2026, organisations that succeed won’t abandon skills-based thinking, they’ll complete it.

Over the years, we have all watched organisations rise, succeed — and sometimes fade away.
It’s rarely just about product, timing, or funding.
It’s about people.
The ones who listen, adapt, and move with the rhythm of change.
Workforce isn’t an HR function.
It’s the heartbeat of an idea. The force that turns vision into reality.
The more I’ve worked with organisations, the more I’ve seen how investing in people, culture, and connection shapes everything.
When those elements align, momentum builds.
When they don’t… even the best strategies struggle.
This week, I have gone down the rabbit hole. This article explores the Power of Workforce, and why every great idea needs structure, belief, and governance to grow.

Over the years, I’ve watched organisations rise, thrive, and sometimes fade away. The difference has rarely been just about product, pricing, or timing .
