Business modeling was once centralized and reserved for a few experts that were building balance sheets, income statements, or cash forecasts. Today’s new business reality requires many more individuals within an organization to analyze, plan, and make data-driven decisions collaboratively. 

Now, organizations are managing this new reality by adapting their modeling and planning processes by making it easy for everyone to participate, creating a way to collaborate on analyses across teams, and boosting computational performance.

As data-driven decision making is expected, and required, in many business areas, it is imperative that more individuals are capable of building financial analysis models. By following some basic guidelines, creating effective models can be done by anyone with a deep understanding of business and knowledge of spreadsheet essentials.
