Incoming CEO/CFO review
What are the top priorities in my new job?
The Incoming CEO/CFO Review is a business advisory service provided to CEOs and CFOs joining a new firm. It generates a rapid and comprehensive analysis of historic trends, latest results, year-end forecasts and budget credibility across the full matrix of subsidiaries, products and key performance indicators of the new enterprise.
Graphical statistical diagnoses, based on existing consolidated financial data, provide a more intuitive means of assessing performance than the traditional "walls of numbers" reports. These diagnoses are delivered either on paper or electronically to the CEO accompanied by a personal briefing session.
The primary objectives of the Incoming CEO/CFO Review are:
- To save considerable personal analysis time so that the CEO or CFO can hit the ground running
- To build rapid consensus amongst the executive team on the fundamental business issues
- To anticipate year-end profit risks and identify corrective actions at an earlier stage
- To encourage fact-based dialogue during initial discussions with individual directors, managers or subsidiaries
- To provide support for discussions with the city.
