Top finance chiefs reveal how the role of the CFO has transformed, where the financial foundation is 'just the cost of entry'
Briefly

"I think the modern CFO is really an evolving role. It's not acceptable for us to just sit in our offices and come out at month end and quarter end. We're really at the core of what's happening in the organizations." - Maria Ferraro, Siemens Energy CFO.
"I spent a lot of time internally on what I call an internal financial education on Instacart. It’s about demystifying finance for folks that are non-finance people." - Emily Reuter, CFO of Instacart.
"Less of what is the P&L? But more of what's the context of why we're making these decisions?" - Emily Reuter, emphasizing the need for enhanced communication among C-suite executives.
"CFOs are now central to creating a company's strategy, and they must also communicate it effectively to external and internal stakeholders." - Insights from MIT about the modern CFO's role.
