A fractional CFO is a chief financial officer who works with you a few days a month. This course covers the point at which a founder actually needs one, what to put in front of them, and which decisions stay on your desk.
Seven lessons. A few days a month of senior finance, spent on the decisions in front of you.
The arrangement usually starts well and drifts. The first sessions go into understanding the company, the next into rebuilding a forecast, and a year later the founder is paying for a monthly call that reviews the past month and stops there.
This course sets the working relationship up deliberately. When the need is real, what to send before the first call, a monthly rhythm that holds, how to read a forecast somebody else built, which decisions are handed over and which are not, and what it looks like when the arrangement has run its course.
Founders considering their first senior finance hire: and unsure whether it should be full time.
Founders already working with one: whose monthly call has quietly become a status update.
Operations leads: preparing the numbers that the session runs on.
The course treats the CFO as somebody you brief.
This course is part of the academy's invite-only offering.
