It is not a massive treatise on everything you should know as a CFO. But the book contains shortcuts a CFO can use to earn credibility and trust. This will help create change within the organization. One of the biggest challenges for a new CFO is often there’s not a job description. It’s usually something vague like “make the CEO look good and help the company succeed”. How do you do that exactly? This book is unlike any other of its kind. We’ve cut to the chase and shared with the CFO what they need to do and how to do it.
