23.01.2022 Is this our trigger for transformation? Many CFO's and finance leaders can be worried or scared to make a wrong move. We may accept the status quo rather than challenging old thinking and disrupt working environments. Now could be a great time to trigger those deep leadership thoughts and stand up for what's right in your business. Be courageous under the cover of forced disruption with the current COVID crisis.... #CFOs #Cfoconversations #standingup #takingarisk #challengingstatusquo #beingthedisrupter #financeleadership #unprecedentedtimes #unprecendentedleadership #thirve&survive

21.01.2022 CFO Conversation #047 - Finance is always more than just the numbers. We all need to think about what value we each add. Value we add as individuals and also value as a team across the organisation. This might not be our normal 'happy place' - conversations and time within the business allows for relationships to build. Also, it adds understanding, commercial acumen and gives each of us a more fulfilled job.

10.01.2022 Great article here from HBR discussing the challenges and potential opportunities for AI and Data analytics to help forecast costs of projects. I have been involved so many times in the optimism bias where we often over promise and yet under deliver on projects. Perhaps the use of AI and 10+ years of known project costs and overruns, challenges could help to drive a seismic shift in our ability to project plan. Maybe this could also help to close the uncertainty gap that many projects face in our fast paced ever changing world of business, design and construction. #certaintygap #agileprojectplanning #businesscases #projectfunding #itsanewworld #financeleadership #projectmanagement #cfos #cfoconversations

04.01.2022 CFO's saving the world. I am a big believer that the role of the CFO lays firmly in the organisations accountability for it's impact on the globe.
