Buy Yourself Time

C-level managers are a company’s key resources, and their time a firm’s dearest commodity. Their task: information acquisition, decision making, execution delivery. Yet without correct and timely information decision making is delayed, and without well planned foundations execution slows, or even fails.

A proper financial function ensures that necessary information is always at hand, and the foundations and processes for managing risk, compliance, cashflow, and profitability remove those concerns from the C-leaders’ daily tasks so that they can focus on growing, and perhaps exiting, a successful business.

Finance is not a creative art. The specialty develops and evolves, but stands firmly on foundations developed over decades. Industries and jurisdictions differ, requiring both a broad and specific understanding of financial topics. My 20+ carrier has spanned more than 10 countries, industries, and tax & regulatory jurisdictions.
