In this episode of Diary of a CFO, I sit down with Matt Ziegler, CFO of GovExec, to unpack what it really takes to hit the ground running in a new CFO role.

Matt shares his experience moving from FP&A to CFO, managing multiple functions, and finding his footing in a company with complex business models.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

How to structure your first 90 days as CFO for maximum impact
The skills to shift from FP&A to a broader CFO role
Effective onboarding techniques and why pre-planning matters
The importance of aligning on simplicity and scalability in finance
Tips for building trust and setting clear expectations with your team

From balancing leadership with technical know-how to navigating the first 90 days, this episode is packed with insights for finance professionals stepping up to senior roles.
