Addressing the challenges of the finance function
We provide tailored services to support CFOs with corporate governance, operations, performance management & business strategy.
Addressing your challenges
It is challenging being a CFO these days. Complicated decisions have to be made on many fronts, and knowing exactly how to proceed at any given time is harder than it looks. A smart move for one company could be unreasonable for another - and understanding which way to turn requires experience and insight.
At the same time, CFOs face never-ending pressure to cut costs, grow revenue and tighten controls - while assuming unprecedented personal risk for their company’s mistakes. Given these internal and external forces, it is no wonder that CFO turnover is on the rise. One reason the CFO’s job is getting more complicated is because it comprises four major roles. We call these roles the 'four faces' of the CFO: Catalyst, Strategist, Steward and Operator.
