What is the number one technical skill FP and a professional should master? I think it's still a spreadsheet. FP&A professionals still need to master Excel and Google sheets and that spreadsheet realm. Still the lingo, I think increasingly given what we spoke. Right. About data and about of course mastering SQL or some user understanding of SQL. I would say even Python. I see more and more sophisticated FP&A professionals that are expanding towards data modeling and languages to their own success. Right. They definitely can advance their career faster that way.
