These diverse experiences have opened his eyes to new perspectives and taught him valuable lessons, which include:Recognizing that the “right way” may simply be one of many right ways.Conflict resolution between people of different backgrounds.Stepping out of your comfort zone often promotes growth and development.Understanding that language may need to be tailored to different partners.Learning from people who are different from him has made Deepak a more knowledgeable financial leader and a more personable collaborator.Deepak DoegarGAVS TechnologiesKen BoydThis episode is brought to you by Stampli.

In today's conversation, Jack McCullough, President of The CFO Leadership Council, is joined by John Baule, CEO at FutureView Systems, to explore the responsibilities of the modern CFO beyond simply looking at the numbers.Before founding FutureView Systems, John spent a substantial portion of his early career as a financial leader based in Southeast Asia. The culture of business, standard operating procedures, and available resources were vastly different there from what he had been used to. This experience forced John to be more creative in his financial approach, and taught him a foundational idea that would guide the rest of his career: finance is a conversation.Rather than be tethered to what the numbers themselves seem to be saying, John is a proponent of using financial data as a jumping-off point to engage in a broader conversation about the whole organization. Letting this broader conversation guide his approach to finance, instead of letting the isolated data guide the organization, has formed John into a holistic leader who recognizes the role each department has to play in shaping a business's success. To him, an organization's financial picture is important, but it's not the whole story.- John Baule - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-baule-639b142/- FutureView Systems - https://www.futureviewsystems.com/- FutureView Systems - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/futureview-systems/- Jack McCullough - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackmcculloughcfo/- The CFO Leadership Council - https://cfoleadershipcouncil.com/- The CFO Leadership Council - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/cfoleadershipcouncil/This episode is brought to you by Stampli.

On this episode, host Ken Boyd is joined by Dave Storer, Controller and VP at ConstructConnect.Although Dave's financial career followed a fairly traditional path right out of school, the last several years of his work have caused a shift in his mentality around data. For much of his career, data had been a siloed asset. He would receive it, use it in his projections and analytics, and its purpose would have been served.Recently, however, Dave developed an interest in interrogating the data he was getting. Where was it coming from? Where was it flowing to? How was this data feeding back into the acquisition of more data? These qualitative questions would shift the way Dave developed his organization's financial best practices to account for the new variables present in the data streams.Ultimately, these best practices would be codified into a digital employee handbook. The combination of its accessibility and data-driven focus has molded Dave's organization into a picture of pragmatic consistency. There's seldom a misunderstanding about how to handle any given situation, because the whole company has access to, and confidence in, Dave's best practices guide.Dave StorerConstructConnectConstructConnect - LinkedInKen BoydStampliThis episode is brought to you by Stampli.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The SaaS CFO, is joined by Chad Wonderling, SVP and Chief Accounting Officer at Salesloft. The lifeblood of any organization is its people. No business can achieve stability, let alone growth, without a strong team willing to grow themselves. This is something Chad has grown passionate about over the course of his career, and he dedicates much of his time to recruiting and training future leaders within Salesloft. Chad is not only a talented financial manager but a skilled recruiter as well, and he's developed a robust philosophy for hiring, retaining, and developing talent within his organization. Chad is constantly on the search for what he calls a “T-shaped leader” who can both dig deep into a specific area of expertise and has the curiosity and trainability to learn a host of diverse skills. For Chad, a successful recruiting strategy starts internally, since the people with the most organizational knowledge are those most likely to promote organizational success. This emphasis on future leaders is part of Chad's holistic FP&A strategy that looks at his company's entire catalog of assets, including the financial leaders who will one day steer the organization in his place.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The Saas CFO, welcomes David Lapter, CFO at Dashlane. David is also an Advisor and Investor at Sifflet and a Mentor at Techstars. David is not only a talented financial manager but also a keen observer and a fast learner. Throughout his extensive career, he has paid close attention to company culture, trends in successful and failing businesses, and the character of his fellow financial leaders. He joins us in this episode and shares parts of his journey to his current role. He also provides some guiding principles that he hopes will help peers to succeed in the industry. A common theme in David's story is one of identity. Organizations that know their target market, their strengths, and their assets, are the ones that consistently outperform their competitors. Trying to be too many things to too many people, or entering a market you're unequipped for, is a short road to failure. Apart from these professional words of wisdom, David has also learned the value of nurturing healthy relationships within the workplace. These relationships are not only essential for personal fulfillment but also for financial stability.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd is joined by Jeff Cross, CFO and Managing Director - US, at BrandMaker. While Jeff has an extensive financial background, he claims his career didn't really begin until almost two decades into it, when he discovered his passion for the private equity world. The idea of moving from business to business while provoking extraordinary growth called to him like nothing had before, but it was not without its fair share of challenges. Jeff's current role has him juggling the finances for three different organizations as he seeks to earn back his initial investment. Having to split focus across multiple businesses is not a challenge most CFOs encounter, but the fast pace and problem-solving nature of the job make Jeff feel right at home. To effectively keep all his plates spinning, Jeff has learned to put a lot of trust in his various leadership teams. As he puts it, the best thing he can do for his various organizations is to hire the right leaders and then get out of their way. Relying on a talented team is fundamental to Jeff's, or any financial leader's, success.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The SaaS CFO, is joined by Rachita Sundar, Senior Vice President of Finance at HubSpot. Rachita is somewhat of a growth specialist. For much of her career, she's been a part of either building new teams from the ground up or scaling businesses to help them expand into new markets. For Rachita, financial leaders are uniquely positioned to help propel this sort of expansion, because they sit at the crossroads of so many business functions. Being able to see the whole of an organization's operations through the lens of finance grants Rachita an important perspective on future growth opportunities. Rachita has gone beyond this, however, and has actively sought opportunities to expand her knowledge in areas of operations, engineering, and marketing. In this way, her personal growth and professional expansion mirror the kind of scaling she hopes to bring about for her organization. It's the consistency between her personal and organizational approach that makes her such an effective strategic partner for companies seeking to scale up. Rachita's adaptability and desire to learn have continually been an asset not only to her career but to the businesses she's been a part of.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd is joined by Ryan Myers, CFO of America's Thrift Stores, to talk about his unique background and the relationships he's cultivated between people and between systems. Ryan initially wanted to pursue a career in music, having obtained a degree in music from the University of Alabama. While he still enjoys music as a hobby, the intricacies and complexities of managing a constantly rotating inventory of retail merchandise captivated Ryan while he was still just an operator at America's Thrift Stores. His passion for making these complex systems run smoothly allowed him to work his way right up to the role of CFO. Much of the time Ryan spent on his journey to his current position was dedicated to making better use of data and analytics. While the budgets and forecasts he was given seemed good on paper, in reality they were often disconnected from the daily operations of the business. Using data to make plans consistent with the reality of organizational operations has been a great achievement for Ryan. Joining these analytics to meaningful partnerships with nonprofit collaborators makes Ryan not only a good steward of systems relationships but human relationships as well.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd welcomes Barbie Jefferson, CFO at the YMCA of Greenville. Barbie has been a successful financial leader for many years but her passions go far beyond her professional aspirations. To Barbie, her role as CFO has never been an end in itself but a job that makes space for her to do the things she truly cares about: serving her community and spending time with her family. Barbie willingly left a publicly-traded company to work for a nonprofit, first a South Carolina state college and then eventually the YMCA of Greenville. This decision was motivated by a desire for a healthier work-life balance, but it also placed Barbie in a position where she could embody her own personal values in a way that advanced the mission of her organization. Barbie's vision and that of the YMCA in Greenville were in lockstep, making Barbie an effective agent for fulfilling the goals set forth at the YMCA. The consistency between personal and organizational values not only made Barbie an ideal worker in her role but made the YMCA better equipped to serve its community.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd welcomes Adanma Osuagwu, Director of Finance/Project Control at By Light. Adanma has a background in more than just finance. Her professional career has given her experience in project management, IT systems, and HR research. Such a diverse skill set serves her well not only in her financial management position, but also in the way she connects her role to the business at large. Adanma understands the people that make up her organization, just as well as she understands the numbers. This knowledge allows her to build bridges between the various departments of By Light. She creates relationships between her team, the technological tools they use, and the organization at large. These relationships help to create healthy team dynamics and a work environment that caters to her staff's needs. This, in turn, promotes staff longevity, and a more efficient business. To Adanma, financial management is not just about understanding money. Rather, it's about understanding the relationships between a business and all its assets, people included. Managing these assets means understanding the connection points between them, and providing the proper tools to create healthy interdepartmental relationships.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The SaaS CFO, interviews Sarah Wilson, VP of Global Finance and Strategy at Tradeshift. Sarah is not only skilled in numbers and data analytics but has also developed a keen emotional intelligence. She knows how to relate those numbers and data points into a meaningful story that unites her team around a shared company vision. It's this understanding and care for the people in her organization that have made her a talented team builder. Sarah has a background not only in finance but also HR, and her experiences have given her a broader understanding of the interconnected pieces of her organization. She's merged these two elements of business together in her compensation philosophy, which reflects a concern for how Tradeshift's finances affect employee well-being. Sarah doesn't see herself as someone who manages both finances and people. Rather, she sees both elements as a singular asset that advances the company's mission. No asset is an island and to see the way the pieces of an organizational puzzle work together and compliment each other is a foundational trait of the successful financial leader.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The SaaS CFO, welcomes Karen Friar, CFO at Benco Dental. Karen started at Benco as an intern in the finance department. Over the better part of two decades, she worked her way up from being a staff accountant all the way to her current role as CFO. Through that journey, Karen has been able to see the transformation that Benco has gone through as it has evolved to keep up with changing times, and Karen has been able to be a part of that evolution as well. While many might view modernization as a simple update to an organization's tech stack or the adoption of new financial standards, Karen sees it as a more all-encompassing philosophy. To her, modernization means flexibility in company culture, hiring practices, work environment, and even the implementation of new KPIs. Society changes almost as rapidly as technology and keeping financial systems current means paying attention to the needs of the people running those systems. Financial success requires a holistic understanding of not only the systems and technologies in place but also the human capital needed to make those assets work most effectively.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray, Founder of The SaaS CFO, welcomes Will Johnson, Chief Financial Officer at Iterable, to discuss the ever-evolving role of the modern CFO. Will's background is as both a venture investor and the CFO of private, venture-backed organizations. It gives Will a uniquely holistic understanding of the finances involved in managing a SaaS organization. He has applied this understanding to his current role at Iterable, seeking to approach the CFO role in a way that engages the entire organization and involves him in operations, sales, and other non-traditional CFO capacities. This has allowed Will to stay on the leading edge of a role that is constantly evolving and to meet his organization's needs in a way that a more traditional CFO might not be able to. One such need is in strategic future planning. Will is able to competently work with management teams to create financial forecasts, rather than simply analyzing past financial models, due to his willingness to engage in tasks that go beyond those that were historically expected of a CFO. Will's immense success with Iterable is a testament to the need for the modern CFO to be adaptable and versatile in their work.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd is joined by Shahrooz Roohparvar, CFO at Cal Poly Humboldt, to discuss the complexities of navigating higher education's unique financial needs. Shahrooz thinks of himself more as a project manager than only as a CFO. He's often directly involved in overseeing the operational side of Cal Poly Humboldt, which has offered its fair share of challenges in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. When students transitioned to primarily online instruction, and when they began making greater use of Cal Poly Humboldt's mental health services, Shahrooz was doing more than financial projections. He was on the front lines of building out the necessary infrastructure to accommodate the school's needs, often measuring success with intangible metrics, like student well-being. By bringing his resource management experience into his project oversight, Shahrooz has helped build Cal Poly Humboldt into a competitive, accessible higher education institution. His understanding of both concrete and abstract metrics of success allowed him to gain a holistic understanding of his organization's needs and ensure they were met, even in a time of crisis.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd is joined by Fran Swain, Chief Financial Officer at Central Valley Ag Cooperative, to discuss the financial structure unique to a farm co-op. At Central Valley Ag, individual farm owners and producers pool their resources to maximize their collective assets. From a financial standpoint, this means Fran is managing the resources of multiple organizations, combined into one financial system. It offers unique challenges to financial management, but also unique advantages. Every member of the co-op's board is themselves a farmer or producer. Every executive member, then, is by definition keenly aware of the needs of the organization. Under this structure, leadership is interwoven with operations and an increasing scale doesn't necessarily lead to detachment from everyday functions. This is an essential component of Central Valley Ag. As a leader in the agriculture industry, the everyday functions of the organization are often on the frontlines of conversations surrounding businesses' impact in the social and ecological sphere. Fran is tasked with managing his company's resources in a way that not only strengthens the organization but also accounts for social and environmental responsibility.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray welcomes Betsy George, CFO at the City of Oxnard, to discuss some of the differences between public and private finance. While she now reports to a city council and works with public funds, Betsy got her start in the private sector. After spending some time working for a shipping company based in Los Angeles, she applied for a position with the City of Long Beach. Her experience in the shipping industry made her an ideal candidate, but she was initially hesitant to accept a job in the public sector. After spending some time with other city employees, Betsy found that her reservations about public sector work were completely unfounded. Work in the public sphere was built on a passion for serving the community and building more efficient public systems, and this new challenge was exactly what Betsy was looking for. Public work is often not so different from the private sector. Betsy still reports to a board, manages a budget, and makes use of an ERP system. Now, however, she works with the community to implement strategies that benefit the whole city. It is a uniquely challenging and profoundly rewarding new environment.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Jack McCullough of the CFO Leadership Council speaks with Shannon Nash, Chief Financial Officer at Reputation. They discuss her personal journey to becoming CFO and her work championing diversity in her industry. Shannon has built a robust portfolio over the course of her impressive career. She began working towards becoming a CPA while still in high school, but also earned a JD from the University of Virginia Law School. She was also the producer of a documentary film. It may seem like an atypical route to becoming a CFO, but Shannon takes pride in her diverse background. For her, the most valuable asset someone can bring to a team is their unique experience. For that reason, Shannon continues to be a passionate advocate for diversity and inclusion within the finance and technology fields. More diverse teams have been proven to outperform their less diverse counterparts. While Shannon appreciates that diversity is simply good business, she seeks to make the world a more inclusive place for the sake of people, not for the sake of numbers.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ken Boyd speaks with Jennifer DuPlessis, Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Operations at Lovejoy ISD, about the struggles of managing financial systems with scarce access to resources. While many businesses have had to face unique challenges in the wake of Covid-19, working within a school district carries its own special kind of adversity. Like so many, Jennifer has had to contend with employee shortages and reduced funding. She does this, however, while working in an industry notorious for its tight budget and limited staffing. Before working in Lovejoy, Jennifer was a part of Arlington Independent School District, an area with many more resources available to it. Transitioning to a smaller district forced Jennifer to adapt quickly, and her resourcefulness has been an important asset in this new environment. From technology that maximizes system efficiency, to tax codes that allow for increased funds, Jennifer uses every tool available to her to rebuild her institution's finances and earn the public's trust.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray welcomes Krista Dusil, CFO at Be The Match, a non-profit organization that manages the most diverse blood stem cell registry in the world. Krista began her career in public accounting and, early on, she moved to a large healthcare firm. On her path to becoming a CFO, she spent some time outside of finance in various roles in operations, product, and venture capital to expand her overall business acumen. After a successful exit with a behavioral health company, Krista continued on a mission-driven path in her career. That's when she took the position of CFO at Be The Match. When asked about the transition to the non-profit world, she says the biggest challenge was getting used to not always making decisions based on maximizing profits. Like any traditional finance role, metrics are the driver for decisions but, at Be The Match, their top-priority metric is lives impacted, including transplants facilitated and cellular therapy delivered.. Additional metrics center around delivering the optimal product to improve outcomes for patients and increasing diversity on the national registry to provide equal access to transplant for patients regardless of race or ethnic background. The result is they look to minimize margins which enables them to reinvest in their mission, to impact as many lives as possible today and well into the future.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Derek DeWinter welcomes two of his colleagues at the DeWinter Group, Tony Tilleskjor and Andy Dunayczan. The discussion is centered around the current breakneck pace of the recruiting market today compared to years past, and they take a look into their crystal ball about what the market will look like moving forward. They all agree that this is the fastest market they have ever seen, and Tony points out that clients have to move quickly right now if they want to bring in top talent. Most of the top candidates are weighing several offers, and companies that drag their feet are going to get passed by. Andy observes that there is a huge demand for the Corporate Controller position right now, mostly due to the evolving role of the CFO. He also sees high demand for the Director of Technical Accounting and SEC Reporting due to the number of companies going public. With such high demand, candidates are in the driver's seat. Moving forward, companies that don't keep up with current compensation or don't allow remote work are going to struggle. It's a fascinating discussion.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, Jack McCullough of The CFO Leadership Council is joined by Peter Taylor, Corporate Controller at Purple Innovation, a maker of direct-to-consumer mattresses, bedding, bases, seat cushions, dog beds, and more. Peter has the title of controller, and he and Jack talk about how the evolution of the CFO role in a post-pandemic world has become more of a revolution. Much of that revolution is made possible through new technology innovations that allow controllers to get away from being buried in spreadsheets all day to become more cross-functional members of the accounting and finance team. A major area where Peter has seen a massive improvement in efficiency is data input. He and his team use AI to automate 80% of data that was traditionally input manually. This frees him and his team to focus on strategic thinking and being a partner in helping to achieve business goals. The two have an in-depth discussion about Peter's five gold standards, which include clearly defined and documented processes, clearly defined roles and responsibilities, and proper data capture. It's a fascinating and educational conversation. Peter Taylor Purple Jack McCullough CFO Leadership Council Stampli Stampli - LinkedIn This episode is brought to you by Stampli.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, Ben Murray of The SaaS CFO is joined by Shachar Rabbe, CFO at Acronis, a global cybersecurity and data protection company. Shachar brings a strong finance background to his position as CFO of this global company with over 17,000 team members worldwide. He oversees a department of more than 50 finance and accounting professionals who were already working mostly remotely before the pandemic hit. Shachar emphasizes the importance of communication when working in a remote environment. He believes it is the job of the leader of a team to find out how each individual prefers to communicate, for example by email, text, or phone, and the leader should adapt for each individual. Shachar has led some major initiatives at Acronis that resulted in overhauling entire systems and processes. He compares it to the Apollo 11 mission to the moon, in that most of the energy expended getting to the moon is spent launching and leaving the earth's gravity. Major initiatives have to be extremely well thought out and organized from the beginning to be successful.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Tiffaney Fox Quintana welcomes Kerstin Benden, CFO at Altium Packaging, a customer-centric packaging solutions provider with a network of plants throughout North America. Kerstin's career journey is far from conventional. She grew up in Germany and she's fluent in German, French, Spanish, and English. Her career started in global taxation with a big six consulting firm. She started as an administrative assistant, but her fluency in German opened the door to her becoming an account lead. Kerstin has a natural curiosity and a love of learning. Many times during her career, doors opened for opportunities that most people would be too afraid or intimidated to take. She walked through many of those doors knowing that she had what it takes to learn the role quickly. She's also been a bit of a rebel. She tells the story of openly defying a dress code that didn't allow women to wear pants. It ended up changing things for all the women at that company. Her talent, knack for building relationships, and tenacity paved the way to her current role as a CFO.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Ben Murray welcomes Bob Feller, chief financial officer at WorkForce Software, a global SaaS provider of workforce management solutions. WorkForce is headquartered in the heart of Michigan, but after a stint as an accountant Bob got his MBA and headed to the Bay Area, working for several early-stage companies during the dotcom boom. One of those companies was Salesforce, and he rode that growth wave through their IPO. Currently, Bob oversees more than $100 million in ARR with 1,000 employees and contractors across the globe. That means overseeing a corporate finance team, cash ops, sales ops, and all the functions that go into being CFO at a large global company with more than 1,100 customers. Bob believes in automation when it will increase speed, data accuracy, or both. With his background in SaaS, he knows it's an ever-evolving process, and he's always evaluating his tech stack, looking for ways to improve his processes. In his experience at several companies, Bob has learned that the team he puts in place is vitally important. Get the right people in place and it builds trust.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Tiffaney Fox Quintana welcomes Jack McCullough, President of The CFO Leadership Council, a professional association founded in 2006 to empower senior financial executives to be successful through networking with their professional peers. Jack is a published author known for Secrets of Rock Star CFOs, a book based on conversations with elite CFOs, and most recently, The Psychopathic CEO: An Executive Survival Guide. He says the secret to becoming a rock star CFO is to think of yourself as a cross-functional executive, who happens to be a financial expert. Being a back-office executive isn't going to fly in the modern world. He says the role continues to evolve, and now there are more MBAs in the position because the role has become more strategic than operational. He wouldn't be surprised if ten years from now we start seeing data scientists in the role. Jack also talks about the importance of having a mentor or coach, and not necessarily one in finance. He shares the importance of the relationship between the CFO and the CEO. And he offers great insight into the importance of ethics. It's a fascinating conversation.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Tiffaney Fox Quintana welcomes Evgeny Fetisov, Chief Financial Officer at Semrush, a global online visibility management platform. Evgeny goes into some detail about his journey to his role as CFO at Semrush, where he was brought on just a couple days before they began the process of going public. His earlier career included banking and investment capital, including experience with the Russian Stock Exchange. When it comes to dealing with other departments at Semrush, Evgeny and his team's philosophy is to treat them as clients. This promotes a culture of financial responsibility, resulting in sound fiscal decisions on their part. A major component of those decisions is the data Evgeny and his team provide. He points out the importance of distributing data to those internal clients that is necessary for them to make informed decisions, but not to overwhelm them with data that is irrelevant. As he says, it's important to humanize your data. Evgeny Fetisov Semrush LinkedIn Semrush Tiffaney Fox Quintana Stampli This episode is brought to you by Stampli.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, host Tiffaney Fox Quintana welcomes Scott Almeida, Chief Financial Officer at Recorded Future, a world leader in intelligence for enterprise security. Scott has been CFO at Recorded Future since 2013, which he says is an unusually long amount of time in the tech industry, particularly for a company that provides Software as a Service. By joining the company at its earliest stage, Scott has had a front-row seat to explosive growth over the years. His first year he oversaw $1 million in annual revenue. That revenue has grown to over $200 million today. With that growth comes the temptation to overspend, but Scott says the culture of being financially responsible still exists, having been instilled in the early, leaner days. He also credits a culture of humility and teamwork that creates a desirable work environment and a stronger company. Despite all the growth, Scott says he hasn't forgotten the leaner days, and he is still willing to roll up his sleeves and get done whatever needs to be done. Good advice for any finance leader.

On this episode of the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast, Ben Murray of The SaaS CFO is joined by Dan Haarmann, CFO at AiFi, a company creating autonomous, checkout-free retail automation solutions. Dan talks about the current state of AiFi, which is building its Series B and experiencing some expansion with support in China, Europe, and India. Things have become more complex recently now that it is shipping the product and delivering the platform in a live environment, and Dan is in the process of hiring a team to bring functions in-house that have previously been outsourced. AiFi is a SaaS company, but it also has hardware and deployment costs as part of its model, which is kept in mind when developing its KPIs at this stage of its growth. Dan has been tracking all the finance and growth metrics from the beginning, even though some of them may not be important today. Growth is the focus right now, but he knows in the long run cash is king, and he'll need all the numbers at his fingertips in the future to paint a complete picture of the finances of the organization for investors and board members.

On this episode of Leaders of Modern Finance, Derek DeWinter and Mike Tomasello, founders of the DeWinter Group—a professional search firm specializing in financial, accounting, and IT talent—discuss a topic they are asked about quite often: When is the right time to bring on leadership positions to your organization? Mike talks about the differences in early stage companies, specifically Series A through Series C. He points out the specific needs at each of those stages, and what leadership roles in finance and accounting should be filled at each stage. They continue the discussion around the skills and expertise needed for Series D and beyond, including filling leadership roles when your company is getting ready to go public. At that stage, you need a different set of skills, including Wall Street relationships; being able to manage the expectations of Wall Street; and managing SEC reporting. With over 50 years of experience between them, Derek and Mike provide valuable insights on the way founders and leaders should think about each stage of the company's growth when it comes to financial and accounting leadership.

Peter Taylor, Corporate Controller at Purple Innovation, joins the Leaders of Modern Finance podcast on this episode to share the framework he follows to ensure that his department is running at maximum efficiency. This process, developed over the course of his career, is a valuable tool for any corporate finance professional. Peter starts with the importance of planning. He admits that he's not always the best at planning in his personal life, but asking the right questions to make sure the plan is a comprehensive and efficient one is critical to success. He also suggests leaders jump into researching new tools that can provide automation and efficiency in the daily operations of your department. This may also affect your decision-making on human resources. If you're running more efficiently, you might not need to bring on new hires. Peter is also a big fan of documentation. He loves email as a documentation tool to ensure everyone has a clear understanding of the plan, goals, and objectives of the department. Clear documentation helps the team work toward a common goal.
