Five key questions to ask
-
Did the CFO provide meaningful value within the first two weeks?
-
Did he personally address your major financial issues or did he just offer recommendations?
-
How well did the CFO get along with your accounting staff and management team?
-
How did having her on your management team affect your strategic planning and execution?
-
Did having the CFO on your management team enable you to relax and/or focus on other areas of the business?
