Featuring Commentary From:

You want to see whether your actions, executions and tactics are on strategy. I think that’s one of the main responsibilities of the Board.
The relationship between the CEO and CFO is the cornerstone of the business. You need trust and also challenge.
The absolute key is that there is nothing between [myself and the CEO] when it comes to discussing our views on the business.
It’s about saying to your team: ‘Even if you’re not in a commercial finance role, I expect you to be spending time in the business and talking about the business.'
