In this week's episode - which is our last for 2 weeks (and for more mature listeners, not for little ears)... the lads are excited about being off on their holidays. Well, they're on a week off... PJ is working (doing a bit of acting) and Jim is confining himself to his castle - drawbridge up, moate full of guard hippos. This time they're (unsurprisingly) talking about the stuff you get up to on your time off, becoming a dad (VERY) late in life, the nightlife in Navan, the price of telly (and dodgy boxes), and being extra expressive for success!If you like what you hear here, tune into Radio Nova 100 for this pair of mad yolks: PJ Gallagher & Jim McCabe's radio show, "Morning Glory", every weekday from 6-10am.The IMRO Radio Award-winning show features news, sport, weather, traffic, competitions and craic every day, as well as the most seriously addictive music in town!

If you work for a software company, odds are that people make up 80-90% of your business's costs. Today's guest argues that in order to effectively manage a company's greatest asset, the CFO should be heavily involved in shaping the company culture. Bill Tole is the CFO of TrustRadius, a trusted platform where tech buyers find real reviews. He is skilled in creating structures around ambition and breaks down how TrustRadius creates and implements Objectives and Key Results (OKRs). He explains how they differ from KPIs, why they fail, and how to set aggressive but achievable goals. He discusses the Rule of 40 and why it's essential for the rest of the company to understand it. Bill also shares how CFOs can influence culture from a finance perspective and why a lack of failure is a cause for concern.—LINKS:Bill Tole on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bill-tole-0a99789/TrustRadius: https://www.trustradius.com/15Five: https://www.15five.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Less but Better: Miro's Justin Coulombe on the Power of Strategic Divestment in SaaS: —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:15) Sponsor – NetSuite | Planful | Tabs(06:00) TrustRadius's Business Model(09:20) OKRs at TrustRadius and Finance's Role in Them(14:07) Finance's Role in Asking the Stupid Questions(15:58) Sponsor – Rippling Spend | Pulley | Navan(20:10) How To Set Aggressive but Achievable Goals(23:19) The Ideal Number of OKRs(24:21) Leaving Room for Failing or Innovating(25:57) OKR Derivatives at Department Level(27:36) Why OKRs Fail(28:55) Rewriting or Killing Off an OKR Mid-Way(29:51) Where To Track Your OKRs(32:03) Applying the Rule of 40(34:39) Educating the Org on the Rule of 40(37:34) EBITDA Versus Free Cash Flow for Calculating Rule of 40(39:24) The CFO As the Culture Leader(43:21) Using Money To Change the Culture in a Positive Way(45:42) Mistakes CFO's Make When It Comes to Culture(47:06) Long-Ass Lightning Round: Why Failure Is Okay(51:41) Advice to Younger Self(53:44) Finance Software Stack(55:12) The State of SaaS Fragmentation or SaaS Sprawl(57:28) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:NetSuite is an AI-powered business management suite, encompassing ERP/Financials, CRM, and ecommerce for more than 41,000 customers.

When PagerDuty went public in 2019, it was generating just $100 million in annual revenue which made it relatively small for a SaaS IPO. One of the main motivations for this was that visibility into the company's financials would inspire customer trust. In this episode, CJ speaks with Howard Wilson, PagerDuty's CFO, who shares the unique challenges of going public as a small company, how the landscape has changed since then, and how to approach an IPO when you don't have the experts you need in-house. As a former chief commercial officer, Howard brings unique insights into the role of a CFO. He discusses the importance of building a finance team with customer awareness, how he uses customer usage patterns to challenge traditional SaaS metrics, and how to uncover the unexpected pathways that customers take to reach your business. He also talks about the complexities of the “beat and raise" forecast, how market volatility creates opportunity, and breaks down his framework for mapping out potential investment areas.—LINKS:Howard Wilson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/howardwilson01/PagerDuty: https://www.pagerduty.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.com—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:08) Sponsor – Planful | Tabs | Rippling Spend(06:01) Earnings Calls and Being a Public Company CFO(11:14) How the Bar for Going Public Has Changed Since 2019(14:04) How Going Public Affects Customer Trust(15:50) Sponsor – Pulley | Navan | NetSuite(19:34) Approaching the IPO Process Without the Necessary Experts In-House(21:47) Using Advisors To Fill Functional Gaps in Small Companies(24:38) The IPO Tech Stack for Small Companies(25:44) The Complexities of the “Beat and Raise” Forecast(28:33) How Market Volatility Creates Opportunity(34:37) How Experience as a Chief Commercial Officer Makes a Better CFO(38:16) A Framework for Mapping Out Potential Investment Areas(44:08) Customer Awareness in Your Finance Organisation(47:47) Customer Usage Patterns Versus Traditional SaaS Metrics(52:16) The Unexpected Pathways Customers Take To Reach Your Business(57:54) Long-Ass Lightning Round: A Learning Mindset(59:22) Advice to Younger Self: Don't Stay in Your Lane(01:01:24) Finance Software Stack(01:02:57) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Planful's financial planning software can transform your FP&A function.

How do you know when a company is ready to go public? And what do you do to prepare for this? Chirag Shah, CFO of Motive and former CFO of Kong and Cornerstone OnDemand, joins CJ to share insights from his experience of scaling businesses from $30 million to nearly $1 billion and tripling ARR. He talks about taking companies public and how he helped take one private again in a $5.2 billion deal. In this episode, he explains what signals indicate that a company is ready to accelerate its growth, the art and science of building sales capacity, and how to balance efficiency and growth in hypergrowth mode. He also covers how to achieve a great valuation without a strong performance, the biggest headache on the road to IPO, and whether you should IPO in the first place or remain private.—LINKS:Chirag Shah on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chirag-shah-787b1b20/Motive: https://gomotive.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.com—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:11) Sponsor – Tabs | Rippling Spend | Pulley(06:25) Personal Product Market Fit: Preparing Companies for IPOs(10:34) How Being a General Manager Made Chirag a Better CFO(15:02) Sponsor – Navan | NetSuite | Planful(18:11) Asking Better Questions in Finance(20:08) Signals That a Company Is Ready To Accelerate Its Growth(25:10) The Art and Science of Building Sales Capacity(28:35) The Dangers of Adding Too Many Sales Reps(33:22) Determining the Numbers of Recruiters and Sales Manager Interviews(35:03) How To Garner a Great Valuation Without a Strong Performance(37:18) The Sweet Spot for Earnings Guidance(41:22) The Biggest Headache on the Road to IPO(44:03) Underappreciated Challenges of Being a Public SaaS Company(46:42) Taking Cornerstone OnDemand Public and Then Private Again(50:17) IPO or Stay Private: Advice for CFOs(52:15) Optimizing for Public Company Holders Versus Private Equity Investors(55:05) Balancing Efficiency and Growth in Hypergrowth Mode(58:34) Long-Ass Lightning Round: Preparation for Being a CFO(01:01:34) Advice to Younger Self(01:04:04) Finance Software Stack(01:05:01) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Tabs is a platform that brings all of your revenue-facing data and workflows - billing, AR, payments, rev rec, and reporting - onto a single system so you can automate and be more flexible.

How can finance leaders identify where their capital is silently going to waste and where it can be better used to drive growth? In this episode, CJ interviews Russell Lester, the CFO of Tropic, where capital allocation is both the product and the mission. Russell introduces the concept of “spoilage”, deployed capital that fails to deliver its intended value. He also talks about “levers”, positive actions that force multiply your efforts, and “leakages”, headwinds or detractors that sap momentum. Russell believes it is the job of the CFO (or “Chief Alignment Officer”) to proactively go looking for these levers and leakages. He then explains how he uses his "center of the table" framework to redeploy the freed-up capital to fuel growth. Russell also covers how to address misalignment, what helicopter skills are and why you need them, what a data safari is and why you should take one daily, and why every CFO needs a spend management tool.—LINKS:Russell Lester on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/russell-lester-aa98463/Tropic: https://www.tropicapp.io/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:The Roadshow, the IPO Process, and Ringing That Bell, With CFO Amanda Whalen of Klaviyo.CFO Jenny Decker Unveils Top Frameworks Used at Front. —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:34) Sponsor – Rippling Spend | Pulley | Navan(06:18) The Business of Star Wars(08:33) The Concept of “Spoilage” in Business(10:27) How To Identify Spoiled Capital(15:10) Spoilage Caused by Strategy Drift(16:25) Sponsor – NetSuite | Planful | Tabs(20:06) What Are “Levers and Leakages”(21:40) Identifying Levers(25:52) Identifying Leakages(26:37) The Center-of-Table Framework for Budgeting(31:03) The CFO As “Chief Alignment Officer”(33:06) How To Address Misalignment(34:57) What Alignment Looks Like in a Founder-Led Business(35:54) What Helicopter Skills Are and Why You Need Them(38:07) Data Safaris and Curiosity as a Secret Weapon(42:54) Aligning Data and Defining Metrics(45:08) Using Tropic for Capital Allocation Decisions(48:13) Spend Management: Cutting Costs Versus Driving Growth(51:08) Why Every CFO Needs a Spend Management Tool(52:59) Long-Ass Lightning Round: Alignment With Investors(55:13) Auto-Renewals: Good or Bad(56:25) Advice to Younger Self(57:08) Finance Software Stack(57:57) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Rippling Spend is a spend management software that gives you complete visibility and automated policy controls across every type of spend, saving you time and money.

John Eason, Retail Director at B&Q Ireland, joins Breakfast Business as the company opens new stores in Navan, Waterford and Letterkenny. What's behind the expansion — and how are customers responding?Listen here.

Cork are through to their first Munster final since 2018 after bouncing back from the Limerick hammering by beating Waterford on Sunday.It was a patchy performance overall where they impressed more in the first half against the wind than they did with the gale to their backs. Pat Ryan's side won by six points but had 10 more wides than the Déise, so there can no debate about the result, but it certainly wasn't a vintage display.In the great scheme of things, it won't really matter, especially with Limerick coming down the tracks again. What can we take from the performance at a packed Páirc?Ger Millerick's finger injury is a concern as he had superbly slotted in for Niall O'Leary. Diarmuid Healy showed well off the bench though, with Darragh Fitzgibbon and Shane Barrett more impressive when restored to their 2024 positions.Cork will need everyone firing for the Treaty but had the luxury of changing half their line-up for the dead rubber group game with Clare.On the football front, Cork were beaten in a vital All-Ireland group game in Navan. Meath were the better team throughout and only their poor finishing kept John Cleary's side in contention.Do the Rebels now have any chance when they host Kerry on Saturday?They might have left the win behind them in the Munster semi-final but that only means Jack O'Connor will have his side fully focused.Brian Hurley missed the Meath loss through injury but clearly there are deeper issues. With three teams making it out of the round-robin phase, Cork are still in the mix but the omens aren't positive right now.Plus there's a look at the minor footballers' loss in the provincial final in Tralee. Keith Ricken's young guns still have an All-Ireland quarter-final on the horizon but will be underdogs.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are look ahead to Cork's All-Ireland SFC group 2 campaign.John Cleary's charges have been drawn in a group with Kerry, Meath and Roscommon with Cork facing Meath this Saturday in Páirc Tailteann, Navan (3pm).The Rebels came second in the group stage in 2023 and finished in third in 2024, progressing to the knockout stage both times.With Cork having beaten Meath twice in their last two games, this is a huge game to give either side the best possible start after Kerry beat Roscommon last weekend.Also on the show, with Camogie congress on Thursday, May 22nd, we discuss what is likely to happen and hoping the skorts-shorts controversy comes to an end.It wasn't a good weekend for the Cork hurlers last time out after losing heavily to Limerick.We talk about their upcoming crunch clash with Waterford in Supervalu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.All this and more on this week's Star Sport Podcast.

The Cork hurlers suffered one of their worst defeats of the modern era at the hands of Limerick on Sunday.Their display at TUS Gaelic Grounds was miles off the required level in the Munster Championship, especially when John Kiely's side were always going to be wired to the moon against the team that ended their five-in-a-row bid.There were very few positives, if any, given Cork lost by a staggering 16 points, coughing up three goals and being outclassed in every line of the field. Now, they can still make the Munster final if they get the better of Waterford at home next Sunday, which you'd have taken at the outset of the campaign.The manner of the loss though leaves them in a very vulnerable position for the visit of the Déise and going forward...Declan Dalton, Rob Downey and Niall O'Leary are injury doubts and we reveal who we would bring into the starting 15 to replace them.Were Cork complacent after landing the league and blitzing Tipp? Did the three-week break have an impact? Or was it just a bad day they can recover from? We certainly hope so.The Cork footballers head to Navan on Saturday afternoon in the opening All-Ireland football series group game. Meath were devastated to be beaten by Louth in the Leinster final, especially when they'd take down Dublin, and will have no fear of the Rebels.They've Kerry at home the following weekend and then face Roscommon in a neutral venue, so getting a victory against Meath is hugely important.On the camogie front, the vote on skorts or skirts takes place this Thursday, while divisional teams have been given a reprieve to feature in the Cork senior camogie championship again this season.We also look ahead to the Cork-Kerry minor final in football and reflect on the minor hurlers' provincial success.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

Cork versus Limerick, the two favourites for Munster and All-Ireland glory, in the Gaelic Grounds with the hosts desperate to inflict a modicum of revenge for last summer... it doesn't get more appealing.On this week's Echo Podcast we preview the provincial hurling showdown in detail. John Kiely's comments after his side were back to their best in beating Waterford reflected his motivation for next Sunday.The Treaty will be keen to lay down a marker but should Cork beat Waterford in their last group game the teams will still meet again in the Munster final, again on Shannonside due to the home and away agreement. So how important is it for the Rebels to secure another victory? The only thing that matters this season is who succeeds Clare as All-Ireland champions.The U20s' narrow loss to Clare in the Munster semi-final is also reviewed, a game they could and probably should have won.There's also a discussion on Louth and Meath's epic Leinster final and Cork's prospects when they travel to Navan to meet the Leinster runners-up at the end of the month. We also look at the league action over the weekend with Clonakilty maintaining their terrific form by hammering the Barrs.Plus Cork camogie team's stand on skorts versus shorts pays off and a look at the latest club league action.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy will be joined by The Echo team including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.You can listen to the Echo Sport Podcast every week wherever you get your podcasts or on www.echolive.ie/podcast Hosted on Acast.

ePower is to supply over 20 shopping centres across 14 counties nationwide with high speed EV charging points, following a partnership agreement with Lanthorn, which manages a portfolio of over €1.6bn of property throughout Ireland. Rollout will begin in 2025, and the sites where chargers will be installed include Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway, as well as busy urban areas like Navan, Dundalk, Mullingar, Athlone, Maynooth, Portlaoise and Kilkenny. ?ePower is working closely with Lanthorn in association with their project managers, KSNPM. ePower has been selected following a competitive process, which took into account the company's ability to offer high speed charging facilities, tailored specifically to each site, and crucially, the assurance that the sites would be maintained and serviced by ePower's 24/7 help desk, field engineering and remote management. Commenting on the development, John O'Keeffe, CEO of Power, said: "We're very proud to be part of the drive towards making electric vehicles a better choice for consumers. The rollout and delivery of chargers, be it through public or private partnerships, is key to this. Through this partnership with Lanthorn, ePower plans to have super-fast chargers installed at shopping centres around Ireland, from Donegal to Cork and many places in between; it's a great expansion for us in what's been a hugely successful year of growth." It's been a busy year for ePower; the company recently joined forces with Dublin's local authorities to bring online up to 200 fast chargers across the region in 2025. The initial phase of the project will see ePower's high-speed chargers installed at more than 40 Dublin locations across the four Dublin local authorities. The company also won six of 17 government contracts for the rollout of new high-speed electric car charging hubs across Ireland, due to be operational by the end of 2025.

The Mayor of Ennis claims the ongoing debate around parking in the county town is "harmful" to its public image and will deter visitors. Sparks flew at this weeks meeting of Ennis Muncipal District as parking once again dominated early discussions. Following a motion tabled by Clarecastle Fianna Fáil Councillor Tom O'Callaghan at a November 2023 meeting of Ennis MD, it was revealed that there had been a 9% reduction in the number of car parking spaces in Ennis over a 15-year period. In light of recent public realm works as well as developments such as the new Ennis library, Councillor O'Callaghan has this week requested an update on any further losses since November 2023. The response from Ennis MD states that the town has almost 3000 spaces and has one space for every 13 people living in it compared to one space for every 29 people in Waterford and one space for every 24 people in Navan. It also says that while some spaces have been lost due to recent developments in the town, almost 350 spaces will soon be added resulting from the Cloister Car Park proposal and the upcoming Lidl store on the Clare Road. Cathaoirleach of Ennis Municipal District, Fianna Fáil Councillor Clare Colleran-Molloy, says she's completely at odds with her party colleague's view on parking in Ennis. Councillors Mary Howard and Paul Murphy echoed the idea that Ennis doesn't have a parking problem while Councillors Tommy Guilfoyle and Pat Daly spoke in support of Councillor O'Callaghan's motion. During the meeting, Councillor O'Callaghan referenced two reports published in 2008 and 2012 which identified a parking shortfall in the county town. He claims some local representatives are trying to ignore this problem and says "if there was a deficit then, there's a deficit now".

In today's Gimme 5, Megan from Navan delivered a masterclass on takeaways

It was a phone call Amy Butte tells us she will never forget. Lifting the receiver, she heard the familiar voice of her father—an accountant who had always championed her career. But this time, his words were tinged with a curious mixture of praise and amazement. He simply couldn't fathom how his daughter, who had taken only one accounting class, was now the CFO of the New York Stock Exchange. “Finance leadership is more than numbers,” Butte reminds us, explaining that, for her, success hinges on weaving data into a strategic narrative that shapes decisions.That same flair for bold moves followed her into a pivotal meeting with the NYSE's new leadership. “How'd you like to be the CFO?” she was asked on the spot, an offer so direct it felt surreal. Butte tells us she immediately saw an opportunity to modernize a centuries-old institution, and within two and a half years—half the time originally planned—she was leading the organization's transition to a public company. The accelerated timeline tested her agility, forcing her to rethink legacy processes and overhaul entrenched systems. Through it all, she discovered that being an agent of change meant continuously blending operational discipline with forward-thinking ideas.

In this weekend review of The Final Furlong Podcast, Emmet Kennedy, Adam Mills, and Katie Young break down the biggest moments from a thrilling few days of racing. L'Eau du Sud has surged to second favouritism for the Arkle following victory in the Kingmaker Novices' Chase. Are Dan Skelton's Cheltenham chances looking stronger than ever, or are there concerns for his stable stars? We also react to the news that ante-post favourite Sir Gino is out for the season. Could Only By Night emerge as a player in the Arkle after her win in the Agatha Christie Mares' Novices' Chase, or will she face limits in the Mares Chase as Katie predicts? Meanwhile, Gordon Elliott dominated at Navan with a 1-2-3 finish in the Grade 2 Novice Hurdle, but which of his runners looks like the top Cheltenham contender? Elsewhere, Joyeuse's victory brought Nicky Henderson his seventh Newbury Handicap Hurdle win and another winner for the podcast, but with Cheltenham ruled out due to new BHA regulations, will she become a Champion Hurdle star like her famous relative, Epatante? Plus, we review 20/1 shot Royale Margaux's victory and Djelo's Denman Chase win. What do their performances mean for the Ryanair Chase picture?

Guest: Matt MacInnis, COO of RipplingOne of the most important things a non-founder can do, says Rippling COO Matt MacInnis, is to learn how to operate in the context of the company they're joining. His CEO, Parker Conrad, “spikes” in certain skill areas, and the rest of the executive team needs to maximize his ability to thrive while “taking care of the rest of it.” Matt likened the work to being a hobbyist airplane pilot, who can't get a license without knowing all the minute details about their plane's engine and aerodynamics. “You can't be a good pilot if you don't understand the engine, because if something goes wrong, you want to be able to troubleshoot it,” he says. “An executive coming in to fly your airplane better learn the engine.”Chapters:(01:08) - Telling Rippling's story (04:27) - Founding & failing at Inkling (09:30) - Different types of hard (13:55) - Discipline and stamina (15:22) - Meeting with Steve Jobs (19:20) - Definitely, give up!
