We continue our Session Replay series with the next product, LogRocket. To learn all about it, we had the pleasure to speak with two guests - Zach Phillips, Senior Product Analyst, and Nikki Zavadska, Lead Product Manager Growth, both at Appfire. Their perspectives were complimentary so we decide, why not? Let's talk with both! Zach is essentially in the product operations area of Appfire, and his team helps implementing LogRocket for the other teams that build products. Nikki is a growth product manager working on one of these teams, so she has first hand experience with some interesting use cases. As a company that build many apps that are sold on 3rd party app store, such as Atlassian and Salesforce, Appfire needed flexibility and control in their session replay platform that they were able to find with LogRocket. It is always interesting for us to learn new use cases and have aha moments on the show, and this one came to us when Nikki shared an interesting case, where she couldn't have find the cause for rage clicks without the usage of the session replay tool. Join us as we explore LogRocket with Zack and Nikki: Why they chose it over other products * How long it takes to implement * Use cases where they use session replay * The benefits of using LogRocket compared with other product analytics tools * How the engineers are using it too * How it handles security and compliance * Other features available in LogRocket and who uses them * Features they love and those that could be improved Using LogRocket to inform the direction of growth experiments * How to justify to the business to get the product * How many electric guitars does Zach own? * And so much more… To learn more about LogRocket:https://www.LogRocket.com * Connect with Zach: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wz... * Connect with Nikki: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ni...

In this episode of the Wise Decision Maker Show, Dr. Gleb Tsipursky speaks to Randall Ward, CEO of Appfire, who talks about why human-centered leadership is key for hybrid and remote work.You can learn about Appfire at https://appfire.com/
Alex Triplett, CFO/COO at Appfire, joins the GrowCFO Show to discuss hybrid working and how to make it successful. Alex shares the culture and ways of working at Appfire and how the organisation embraces hybrid working as a core value. Hybrid working for a finance function refers to a work arrangement that combines remote and in-office work for employees within the finance department of an organization. This approach allows employees to work from different locations, such as their homes or satellite offices, while also spending some time working from a central office location. Key aspects of hybrid working for a finance function include: Flexibility: Employees have the flexibility to choose where they work, whether it's at the office, at home, or another suitable location. This flexibility can help individuals balance their work and personal lives, potentially leading to increased job satisfaction and better mental well-being. Remote Work: Employees can perform their finance-related tasks remotely, using digital tools, cloud-based platforms, and communication technologies to collaborate with colleagues, complete financial analyses, prepare reports, and engage in virtual meetings. In-Office Collaboration: While remote work is a significant component of hybrid working, employees are expected to spend some time at the office. This time is usually dedicated to collaborative activities that benefit from face-to-face interactions, such as team meetings, brainstorming sessions, training, and certain complex financial discussions. Technology and Infrastructure: Organizations must provide the necessary technological infrastructure to support remote work for their finance teams. This includes secure access to financial systems, reliable communication tools, cybersecurity measures, and access to required data and documents. Performance Measurement: Managers often focus on measuring employees' performance based on outcomes and deliverables rather than solely on the amount of time spent in the office. This shift towards outcome-based evaluation can promote accountability and results-oriented work. Communication and Collaboration: Hybrid working relies heavily on effective communication and collaboration tools to ensure that remote and in-office employees can work seamlessly together. Video conferencing, instant messaging, and project management tools keep everyone connected and informed. Work-Life Balance: Hybrid working can provide employees with a better work-life balance, as they have more control over their schedules and can avoid lengthy commutes. This can lead to increased job satisfaction and reduced burnout. Employee Preferences: Employee preferences for where and how they work are considered. Some individuals may thrive in a remote environment, while others may prefer the structure and social interactions of working in the office. Challenges and Considerations: Hybrid working also comes with challenges, such as maintaining a sense of team cohesion, managing communication gaps, and ensuring remote employees have equal access to opportunities and information. In the context of the finance function, hybrid working can be particularly beneficial, as much of the work involves data analysis, report preparation, and financial modelling, which can be performed effectively using digital tools. However, it's crucial for organizations to carefully plan and implement the hybrid work model to address potential challenges and ensure that the finance function continues to operate smoothly and efficiently. Summary Alex discussed his role as CFO and COO at AppFire, a fast-growing enterprise software company that provides next-generation apps to enhance platforms like Atlassian, Microsoft, and Salesforce. He emphasized the importance of culture and human connection in the company, which was a key factor in his decision to join. Kevin and Alex discussed the topic of making hybrid working work.

This episode of Planning Aces features the FP&A insights and commentary of CFO Dev Ahuja of Novelis, CFO Alex Triplett of Appfire and CFO Rick Rosenthal of Clara Analytics. One of the key topics co host Brett Knowles drills down on is the difference between complicated and complex problems. Brett uses the examples of manufacturing a car, which is complicated, and raising a child, which is complex. The distinction is crucial in understanding how to approach problem-solving in an organization. While complicated problems can be solved with the right formulas or spreadsheets, complex problems require more. They demand strong interpersonal relationships and effective communication. It's not just about having the right tools or processes, but also about having the right people who can use these tools effectively. Planning Ace CFO Dev Ahuja brings some perspective on the role of people in finance transformation. CFO Ahuja shared insights into the structure of his finance organization at Novelis. Despite being well-established, the organization needed a renewed focus on the role of finance in driving decisions and adding value. Dev emphasized the importance of finance being a thought partner and actively shaping strategy. He also highlighted the need for a strong talent pipeline and succession planning. This ensures the organization has the necessary depth of talent to drive its vision forward.

When Alex Triplett is asked to explain where and how he began acquiring his operations knowledge, he tells us that his ops focus began to sharpen as more and more roles demanded greater “specificity” of him. Back in 2006, Triplett had just completed a stint as an investment banker with Citigroup when he was hired by private equity firm TA Associates as an associate inside the firm's enterprise software and fintech realms. “Fintech forced me to get closer to the product itself because I couldn't be credible otherwise,” recalls Triplett, who notes that very often the company founders across from whom he sat at meetings had other options when it came to sourcing investors, so the ability to demonstrate some depth when it came to product knowledge became essential. “I got used to it being about product, product, product,” continues Triplett, who tells us that even today, his TA years bring to mind volumes of product literature and a steady stream of software demonstrations. Still, Triplett reports that the specificity that he was able to nurture when it came to actual product knowledge was of little aid to him when discussions turned to the different operational challenges that certain founders were confronting. He attributes this void to what might be deemed the familiar investor–operator gap. “They were great investors, but they didn't always know how to give specific advice to a company that was trying to understand whether to pivot right or pivot left,” remarks Triplett, who says that it was his growing appetite for operations knowledge that ultimately led him to leave TA and join the corporate development team at financial services software company Ion. In the years that followed, Triplett was at times tasked with being general manager of various newly acquired businesses—a succession of assignments that eventually would empower him with the specificity required to emerge as an operations troubleshooter. “It's great to be able to analyze the shape of things from 10,000 feet and glean insights using pattern recognition,” Triplett observes, “but do you actually know how a business works?” –Jack Sweeney
