Andi Lonnen, founder and CEO of FBP Academy, joins us to discuss Finance business partnering: what it is, why it's important, and how to build the mindset of a Finance Business Partner.

Alongside many insights in this conversation with podcast host Kevin Gormley (AICPA & CIMA, UK), Andi highlights that Finance Business Partners (FBPs) are not just traditional accountants who "add up" numbers, but professionals who "add value".
