1. The Power of Uncapped Productivity: Elevating CFO Contributions Through Discerning Decision-Making
Uncapped productivity is one of the 3 core outcomes of our programs developed exclusively for the Office of the CFO. This is because there has always been more to do than the time available, and resources have always been scarce. We saw this again in 2023 and so it's unsurprising to see that this article was the year's most read.
We know that unleashing productivity is more than just time management and working your team harder. The key attribute and skill that CFOs need to lean into is their ability to be discerning when making decisions.
In this article I share the following 4 tips to answer the question 'what is the outcome or contribution that I'm trying to deliver and in order to achieve that, how can I get that done in a better way?'
1. Focus on the bigger picture
2. Stick to world class habits
3. Get outside perspectives
4. Use your team better
