From Go to CFO
S4, EP2: [axr] Market Trends & What's Next for Finance Leaders
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dave Goldbach and Kunal Gupta continue [axr]'s relaunch of From Go to CFO with a look at how the finance leadership market is shifting, and what it means for anyone building toward a CFO seat. They cover three areas: what's changing in the roles [axr] recruits for, the bigger market trends behind those changes, and what candidates should be doing about it.
In this episode, listeners will:
- Get a clear read on why technical finance skills are now the baseline, not the differentiator, for senior roles.
- Understand how AI is reshaping day-to-day finance work, and where it's freeing up time for higher-value strategic input instead of replacing people.
- Hear why businesses are increasingly rewarding adaptability and range across a career, rather than long, unbroken tenure in a single role.
- Learn what kind of experience (transformation, M&A integration, ERP projects) is becoming genuinely valuable on a CV, and why.
- Come away with practical steps for building commercial and influencing skills, whatever finance role they're in today.
