🎄 The 12 CFO Slogans of Christmas 🎄 Like an ice-berg the work a CFO and finance does is often not seen or heard. Whether reviewing M&A opportunities, fund-raising; or stretching cash it can be more Secret Squirrel certainly not Secret Santa. So over the last year thought about my own personal brand and the general unfair perception of CFO’s and finance From bean counter to smiling assassin. Its time for a re-brand Love to hear your thoughts About what are and what not… 🍾12 CFO Slogans "1. Values. Vision. Velocity." ✅ Integrity, strategic foresight, ability to drive rapid, sustainable growth. ❌ Not a blocker like Santa stuck in the chimney. "2. Scaling Revenue. Value-sharpening." ✅ Balancing top-line growth with maximizing shareholder returns. ❌ Not short-term profit to detriment of longer-term value. "3. Economic Effective Execution." ✅ Deep understanding of unit economics with practical execution. ❌ Not cutting without discussing impacts and understanding the triggers. "4 Grow True Grit." ✅ Leading with resilience and determination to deliver long-term success. ❌ Not snowploughing path without listening valuable feedback “5. Trust. Teams. Innovate." ✅ Fostering stakeholder trust, building strong teams, and innovation ❌ Don’t lose sight of what’s been achieved or overburden the good. "6. Cash Flows Growth." ✅ Focuses on managing cash to fuel scalable, sustainable growth. ❌ Penny pinching pound foolish. Lifting cushions after relatives left! "7. Innovate. Execute. Exit." ✅ Captures the ability to drive innovation, deliver results, and exit ready. ❌ Timing is everything – don’t get greedy and leave nothing for buyer. "8. Insight to Impact." ✅ Turning data-driven insights into actionable, measurable outcomes. ❌ Not analysis paralysis without clear messaging to aid decision-making “9. Stories Drive Strategy." ✅ Crafting compelling narratives aligning teams/stakeholders goals. ❌ Strategy without practical plan for positive execution is no strategy. "10. Decisions. Data. Direction." ✅ Making sound decisions under pressure, even with incomplete data. ❌ Don’t wait for the perfect present while the house is burning. "11. Messaging Moves Dial." ✅ Clear, impactful messages that inspire buy-in and action. ❌ Not all Board members are “in your business” give context and time "12. Clarity in Complexity." ✅ Simplify complex ideas to align stakeholders and accelerate execution. ❌ No tangled mess like last year’s Christmas lights, just great tree. 🎁 Your Turn: Which slogan sleighs it this CFO Christmas or CFO 2025? Or will I get coal (or carbon neutral equivalent) this year. Any favourite? #CFO2025 #Leadership #GrowthWithGrit #TwelveCFOSlogansOfChristmas

Most CFOs are TOO focused on making the financials look good. This actually DIMINISHES their credibility... Here is why and how to fix it 👇 Anyone can throw out suggestions to make the financials look better. If that is the sole focus as a Fractional CFO, it's easy to lose sigh of the TRUE job: 👉 To support the company’s operational objectives and goals. Operations are NOT here to support finance. Operation leaders need accurate and transparent financial data to make informed decisions, which is where you, as the Fractional CFO, come in. 👉 Financial leadership without a working understanding of operations is what I call “financial leadership by spreadsheet”. And too many CFOs are leading this way! Talk about a fast way to diminish your value and become thoroughly discredited by ops. For example, take tax strategy. ✅ You recommend a tax strategy that looks great on paper... ❌ But maybe the company wants to keep extra cash in the bank because they plan on acquiring another company. ✅ Or maybe you recommend that they reduce employee comp because payroll is above industry averages... ❌ But come to find out, those employees are total rockstars and the CEO highly values paying above-market wages. Finances only tell ONE side of the story. Don't throw out ideas only to make the financials look better. First, understand how those ideas impact operations and contribute to the company's longer-term goals and values. Then create your amazing financial strategy.

As a fractional CFO myself, I appriciate Bob Wang's insight in this piece about the Rule of 30. "This rule, an adaptation of the tech industry’s Rule of 40, suggests that the sum of a company’s growth rate and profit margin should equal or exceed 30%," writes Wang. And the CFO plays a major role in ensuring cash flow through this rule. There are many different ways to approach this Rule of 30, but no matter the approach you take, the responsibilities are the same: Financial planning and analysis, performance monitoring, cost management, and strategic decision-making. No matter which company you're working for, these responsibilities are essential. #FractionalCFO #RuleOf30 #FinancialPlanning
