When your CFO leaves: relying on an interim CFO for financial stability The departure of a CFO can cause turbulence in a company, and until a new one is hired, it might make sense to bring in an interim CFO. Here is a brief article that discusses this topic. https://lnkd.in/gnpbHrfH

Many people jump into the fractional CFO career and do remarkably well. Many more people jump into the fractional CFO career and do poorly, or it takes them a year or two to become self-sustaining. The ones who do well are the ones you read about on LinkedIn. The ones who are not doing well do not post about how they're doing on LinkedIn - you might think they were doing great based on their posts. But I know you're out there because I talk to a number of you. You started off excited, watching podcasts, videos, and masterclasses, and what they tell you to do - just...doesn't...work...for...you. Now is the time for you to do 1 on 1 coaching. I know you don't want to spend more money and time after putting all the time and money already into the above-mentioned stuff. But you're probably in a rut that needs personalized attention to get out of. I have a 1 on 1 coaching package targeted specifically toward people who are already fractional CFOs and not living up to your own expectations. There is an established structure but you can move at your own pace and we can modify the agenda to suit your needs. Most importantly, I take ownership of you being successful. I will beat myself up if you are not successful at the end of our time together. https://lnkd.in/ekTWqGcz

A CFO's ability to drive new insights is hindered when their team is consumed by repetitive manual effort to do core reports. In over 20 years of automating data processes, building dashboards, and implementing flexible reporting solutions, I've seen the same pattern repeat itself. Prioritizing report automation and dynamic dashboards is key. By eliminating the time-consuming task of manual reporting, CFOs can unlock up to 50% of their team's time. Imagine the possibilities with that much time reclaimed! What reports and insights would you automate if you could? #DataAutomation #BusinessInsights #AccountantsandAccounting

I have only 2 spots left in my program CFO to Fractional Exploration, which provides ONE on ONE coaching to help you decide whether a fractional CFO career is right for you. If you're interested, click on the link in the comments below. I've spoken with many CFOs over the years about being a fractional CFO. Most have heard about the concept but don't know that much about it. I wrote the book "So You Want to be a Fractional CFO" to address that target audience and give them a sense of what it would be like. After publishing the book and talking to literally hundreds of people who wondered if they were a fit for a fractional CFO career, I created a 2-session program to 1) pull back the curtain on what life as a fractional CFO is like, and 2) determine whether your background and other characteristics make you a good fit.
