The Strategic Role of the CFO in SMEs
Jun 24, 2024

Exploring the CFO's unique and sometimes misunderstood role in shaping organizational strategy, this episode examines their guidance in navigating long-term strategic development, including complex mergers, acquisitions, and more. We analyze why SME leadership often falls short in targeting future achievements due to an intense concentration on present tasks, and we explore integrating a fractional CFO into the team, discussing unexpected benefits and potential obstacles. Focusing on strategic visioning, scenario planning, and nurturing productive leadership team dynamics, this conversation arms business leaders and executives with the knowledge to make informed, data-backed decisions. These decisions effectively merge immediate organizational needs with larger, ambitious goals, ensuring cohesive advancement and the company's overall growth. Featuring Sarah Smigel
