In this episode, Catherine Clark, GrowCFO Mentor, reframes influence as the practical outcome of deliberate connection. She and host Kevin Appleby unpack how remote and hybrid work have thinned everyday rapport, making it harder for finance leaders to shape decisions, mobilize teams, and retain talent. Their premise is simple: influence compounds when CFOs intentionally build trust, recognition, and emotionally intelligent dialogue across stakeholders. Catherine offers a playbook for finance leaders to operationalize connection: stakeholder mapping early and often, creating unstructured time for human conversation, signaling appreciation consistently, and showing up with presence—even through a screen. The episode highlights how small, repeated behaviors (gratitude, active listening, regular check-ins) turn into strategic leverage: faster alignment, better decision inclusion, higher engagement, and materially improved performance environments for finance teams and their partners. Key topics covered: Why remote/hybrid erodes spontaneous trust, and how CFOs can rebuild it with intentional routines Stakeholder mapping and early relationship-building as core influence mechanics, not “nice to haves Recognition and gratitude as low-cost, high-impact leadership signals that boost engagement and retention Emotional connection and presence (active listening, curiosity) driving performance and decision quality Practical cadence: unstructured touchpoints, pre-alignment conversations, and regular reconnection rituals Cultivating a culture of connection—small, repeatable behaviors that scale influence across the organization Links Catherine Clark on LinkedIn Kevin Appleby on LinkedIn GrowCFO Mentoring Timestamps 04:14 Remote/hybrid realities: the connection gap and its impact on leadership/retention 12:00 Relationship strategy: stakeholder mapping and early outreach to accelerate trust 27:42 Recognition and gratitude as influence multipliers 35:31 Emotional connection, interference removal, and performance outcomes 44:48 Building an organizational culture of connection and shared values 46:37 Final actions: small, consistent behaviors that compound into influence Find out more about GrowCFO If you enjoyed this podcast, you can subscribe to the GrowCFO Show with your favorite podcast app. The GrowCFO show is listed in the Apple podcast directory, Spotify and many others.

Carrie Gallant is a dynamic speaker, author, coach and facilitator; she is a licensed associate of the Impostor Syndrome Institute. In this episode, Carrie discusses imposter syndrome and how it affects finance leaders with Kevin Appleby. Carrie shares how she got into studying imposter syndrome and how it can impact people differently based on gender and culture. Common feelings associated with imposter syndrome include feeling like a fraud or not being good enough. Often, the finance leader might suffer from imposter syndrome, but it could just as easily be other members of the finance team. So, as a leader, how do you spot when this affects somebody on your team? Some signs a leader should look out for in their team include underperformance, isolation, or holding back contributions. Strategies to overcome imposter syndrome include acknowledging feelings, focusing on facts and past successes, asking, "What if I felt confident?" and keeping a success journal. The conversation also covers how imposter syndrome can discourage people from applying for promotions or new jobs. Signs of Imposter syndrome a leader should look out for Carrie Gallant mentioned a few signs that a leader should look out for in their team that could indicate someone is experiencing imposter syndrome: - Underperformance - If someone seems not to be performing to their full potential or up to the level expected. - Isolation - If a team member appears more isolated from the rest of the team than others and not fully engaging or participating. - Holding back contributions - Noticing if someone holds back from saying something, contributing ideas, or hesitating to take on responsibilities. This could be a sign they lack confidence. - Surveys showing a lack of belonging - If organizational surveys find a team member has reported not feeling like there is a strong team atmosphere or that they entirely belong. A lack of belonging can contribute to lower confidence. Key strategies for overcoming imposter syndrome Some key strategies Carrie Gallant discussed for overcoming imposter syndrome include: Acknowledging the feelings rather than ignoring them, which helps to normalize the experience. Focusing on facts and looking at past successes, strengths, and accomplishments to provide a counterbalance to negative feelings. Asking oneself, "What if I felt confident?" to shift perspective and think about what actions a confident person might take. Keeping a "success journal" or "bank vault of value" to record achievements and positive feedback as a resource to consult when confidence is low. Leveraging assessment tools like StrengthsFinder to understand better one's natural talents and strengths to feel more competent in certain roles. Having open conversations with managers using questions like "What's holding you back?" and "What would you do if you felt confident?" for support and new perspectives. https://youtu.be/IblyotJkGHs Links Join GrowCFO today Overcome Imposter Syndrome: A Guide to Building Confidence for Finance Leaders GrowCFO Show Episode 15: Imposter Syndrome and the CFO with Catherine Clark "Conversation secrets for tomorrow's leaders" By Carrie Gallant on Amazon UK and Amazon US Carrie Gallant on LinkedIn Kevin Appleby on LinkedIn Timestamps Introducing Carrie Gallant (0:11) The finance leader's role is spotting the problem.

Introducing Rosemary Addis, Founding Partner of Mondiale Impact and Ambassador for The Global Steering Group for Impact Investment (GSG), in the next of my contributor conversations for 'No more greenwashing: Driving evidence-based practice in ESG & Impact Investing'.We discuss the idea of perfect being the enemy of good, which came up during my conversation with Cliff Prior quoting Elias Masilela, and the reality that we've always been making decisions based on imperfect information.Moving into the trajectories of fund flows, market volatility and fiscal conditions, we discuss the step change occuring in impact methodologies, my discussion with Kristin Siegel and the Impact Management Project.Q. Where are all the skilled people? What does this labour transition look like and where is it coming from?In answer we talk through various channels including the excellent and very accessible course from Catherine Clark and Duke University on Coursera; 'Impact Measurement and Management for the SDGs', and the work of Tideline and 'Bridges Insight' by Bridges Fund Management Ltd.Additionally, I ask questions that you need to be able to answer as a Directors or Business Leader; How do you go from being reactive to perceived risk, to asking “What would good look like? What would it look like for us to be able to manage this risk well and to move forward in ways that we're also using impact as an identifier of different types of opportunities to differentiate ourselves in the market?”If you haven't yet got our free report 'No More Greenwashing: Driving evidence-based practice in ESG & Impact Investing' you can download it at http://bit.ly/nomoregreenwashingSupport the showFor the latest insights on leadership, impact investing, global challenges, business strategy and storytelling, make sure to join me on LinkedIn, and get the newsletter, Smarter Impact - Every Thursday!

Her new book, Gifts In Dark Packages, provides readers with an easy-to-use mental health resiliency roadmap to help readers emerge from dark times and realize how resilient they truly are, leaving dark moments behind to live a better life. According to the World Health Organization, around 450 million people struggle with mental illness, making it the leading cause of disability worldwide. One person dies by suicide every 40 seconds. In Canada alone, one in two people will experience a mental disorder before the age of 40 (CAMH). The book shares personal experiences with trauma and relatable case studies to clearly illustrate how using these actions can channel adversity into resiliency, where you ‘feel it all, to heal it all'.www.catherineclarkconnects.com www.meetmeforcoffee.co#meetmeforcoffee#mmfcpodcast#mentalhealthawareness
Vassy Kapelos is one of the most well-known figures in Canadian media and politics, and the latest guest on The Honest Talk. An award-winning journalist, she hosted Power and Politics on CBC for five years before recently announcing a move to CTV News. There, she will take on the role of Chief Political Correspondent and host not one, but two shows: Question Period and Power Play. On the heels of her biggest career move yet, Kapelos sat down with Jennifer Stewart and Catherine Clark for this episode of The Honest Talk. From her first job in Saskatchewan to her new national radio show and bellwether hosting gigs, her childhood, marriage, parenting and more, this interview covers it all.
Christmas (or whatever holiday makes you giddy with glee) came early here at Alternate Ending. We're joined by one of our favorite humans, Catherine Clark! You may have seen some of her writing contributions on ae.com, but she's also an artist, film producer and officially the best cat Mom on the planet (don't tell Tim). If there was a contest for the person in our lives who would be the least likely to get kicked out of a Gen-Z party, Catherine would win in a landslide. Meanwhile, Carrie still uses words like "hip" and "cool whip" in public conversations. Needless to say, their feelings on Bodies Bodies Bodies...differ. Catherine also brings the Triangle of Sadness, which she compares to Parasite only with Woody Harrelson (there are less intriguing ways to describe a movie). The pair round out the conversation with their perspectives on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. We promise and cross-our-hearts that this is a spoiler-free episode. Tune in and have a great week, friends! ----------------------------------------------------- Love the Podcast? Leave us a review! Other places to follow Alternate Ending.

A sports website for women-identifying fans? Now, that is a home run! Just ask Jacie deHoop, co-founder of The GIST, a thriving sports media company and the go-to source for sports coverage and conversations for women. Launched across North America in 2019 by three college friends — Jacie deHoop, Ellen Hyslop and Roslyn McLarty — The GIST is all about changing the game in the male-dominated sports industry, where fewer than 14% of journalists are women and less than 4% of coverage is on female athletes. On this episode of The Honest Talk, Jacie joins Jennifer Stewart and Catherine Clark to talk about launching The GIST and creating content for women-identifying sports fans. She also breaks down the hard work, dedication and enthusiasm that have grown The GIST from a weekly newsletter to a multi-platform powerhouse in just three years.

Our first CFO Connect event of 2022 focused on a topic far too neglected in the finance industry: impostor syndrome, and the toll it takes on finance professionals. To address this topic, we spoke with Catherine Clark, executive mentor and former CFO. After spending more than 20 years in organizations of all sizes, she shifted her attention and skills to professional mentoring. Catherine now helps finance leaders unlock their potential and excel in their roles. We dug deep into the roots of impostor syndrome, its consequences for finance professionals, and the ways to overcome it to express your full potential as a leader.

In this part 2 of the previous episode, my friend Catherine Clark shares how she has processed the prophetic swirl surrounding her moving to Russia and why she believes the time is actually now. We also discuss how to navigate through the prophetic and how we're suppose to respond whenever a prophetic promise/invitation dies.
In this episode, I get SUPER vulnerable and I let you guys in on how I'm processing the incredible journey I've been on with the Lord the last 2 months (which includes but is not limited to: dreams, prophetic words, and crazy divine appointments) and why I am moving from IHOP in Kansas City to join the UpperRoom Church community in Dallas.
In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Catherine Clark and talk about her journey out of a place of cynicism and into a place of healing and expectancy for the Lord to do great and mighty things.

She also runs Catherine Clark Communications, a consultancy which provides strategic communications advice and support to institutions, corporations, and individuals. Catherine has spent her entire life observing and conducting meaningful conversations.
