It details many of the challenges Founders and CEOs face as they scale up, and which are detailed in our report How Finance Fuels Growth.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading]The podcast discusses: [/vc_custom_heading][uncode_list icon=”fa fa-check” icon_color=”color-iopl”]
- The role of effective finance teams

[/uncode_list][vc_icon position=”left” icon=”fa fa-quote-left” size=”fa-2x” text_size=”h4″]Once we began to speak with more sophisticated investors and venture capitalists, it became very clear that we needed to bring on senior finance talent to help us continue on our accelerated growth path. Having a senior finance leader provide a transparent picture of the business’s performance to investors is incredibly helpful.
Dr. Brett Belchetz, CEO & Co-Founder of Maple[/vc_icon][vc_icon position=”left” icon=”fa fa-quote-left” size=”fa-2x” text_size=”h4″]When you’re building a high-growth finance team, cultural alignment is critical: do they support the company’s mission, and have they taken the time to understand where the organization is going? The next thing to consider when evaluating finance talent is the candidate’s ability to learn rapidly, especially during growth events like an IPO. Then you have to consider the technical skills that are needed to succeed on day one.
