I have trained dozens of accountants in my career including several who started out with zero experience. My first CFO job I was able to get the month-end close down from 45 days to under 10 days. I also uncovered a $1M plus fraud (fraudster went to prison), built advanced data models for automated reporting, re-built the accounting department and helped implement over $1M worth of software in a 3 year time span. During that first CFO role, our company grew EBITDA 600% and we went from $60M to $160M in Revenue in under 6 years. Show less
