The Inventive Experts Podcast


In this episode, Scott reflects on the significance of the role of CFOs, emphasizing that it stands for Chief Financial Officer, not Chief Accounting Officer. In his view, accounting is a science, while finance is both an art and a science. The CFO's role extends beyond being solely a cost cutter or budget manager; rather, it is designed to serve as a strategic business partner for the owner or CEO. The primary objective is to contribute to scalable and profitable growth. While cost-cutting can be a tactical approach to aligning expenses, it should not be mistaken for a long-term strategy for business expansion.
