The CFO Playbook

How Top CFO's Operate


Listen Later

Lessons we cover in this episode:

  1. Successful CFOs look at the big picture.
  2. As the source of financial truth, CFOs need to be able to look at any number and know if it’s “true” or not.
  3. Decide where you want to be on the spectrum of strategic vs operational. A good CFO needs to be a thinker and business partner, but they also need to be a doer (able to build a team, get work done, etc.).
  4. When you first step into a new role, focus on people, process and technology.
  5. When you get it wrong, acknowledge it, fix it, forgive yourself and move on.
  6. Focus on 2 things as a CFO: growing yourself, and growing your team.
