At a time when cash is more important than ever, there is, perhaps, no more important executive than the CFO. Gain a view into how CFO’s should be responding to the Coronavirus pandemic with Vic Chynoweth, CFO and COO of Jaggaer, as he discusses what a CFO needs to do to lead their company in the time of the Coronavirus. Vic’s advice includes:
- “The worst mistake a CFO can make in times like this is overconfidence and bravado.”
- “Liquidity, cash management, optimizing cash, visibility and alignment, are critical. CFOs need to understand what this means to their company and how they need to respond to it.”
- “CFOs must consider how they can help both employees and customers – they need a people first mentality.”
- “The most important part of a CFO’s job is to help businesses make good decisions, and improved communication with procurement is critical.”
