About this title

From the Inside Flap

Guide to CFO Success

Leadership Strategies for Corporate Financial Professionals

Today's Chief Financial Officers generally have the technical skills they need to perform their jobs, but do they have the leadership ability? As part of the Wiley Corporate F&A Series, Guide to CFO Success: Leadership Strategies for Corporate Financial Professionals helps current and aspiring CFOs develop the leadership strategies they need to positively impact their careers and deliver consistently exceptional results to their employing organizations.

The modern CFO's actions impact not only the companies they work for but also nations around the globe, requiring them to bring much more to the table than solid technical expertise. This book aims to not only inform CFOs of their organizational value, but to also show them how to take responsibility for their own career success using specific techniques and strategies. Beginning with a discussion of successful career strategies and then moving into real world employment scenarios, Guide to CFO Success not only examines the characteristics of a successful CFO, but how to transition successfully into a CFO role, how to manage relationships at all levels, and how to build a successful finance team.

Author Samuel Dergel is a widely respected consultant, executive recruiter, and coach. His advice is based on over a decade of conversations with CFOs and his extensive firsthand experience working through the issues they face. The only resource of its kind, Guide to CFO Success is the first and only leadership book aimed exclusively at CFOs to help maximize their unique role and take their careers to the next level.
