What Does a CFO Do?

Welcome to today’s video, where we’re diving into a question I think many people have: What does a CFO do? It’s a surprisingly common question, and the answer isn’t always clear from the outside. There’s no instruction manual on how to be a CFO, and even in business school, there’s no dedicated class on the role. So, what exactly does the Chief Financial Officer do? Today, we’ll answer that.

The CFO is one of these senior leaders, responsible for managing the organization’s finances. Additionally, the CFO has a direct link to the board of directors, which allows for open communication regarding the company’s financial health and strategies.

Now, the CFO’s job includes a seemingly endless list of activities and responsibilities in managing an organization’s money. It’s a challenging and highly complex role. It’s a blend of strategic planning, accountability, and ethical integrity, making the CFO’s role critical for the company’s stability and success.

So, in short, while the role of the CFO might seem a bit mysterious from the outside, it’s really about driving financial planning, providing guidance, and ensuring ethical practices.
