  • Fun and Engaging

    Kevin is such a great host and is skilled at drawing out pertinent information. Thank you for having me on the show. I had a truly amazing time discussing the NFP sector’s uniqueness. Thank you for creating a space to help amplify its voice. To every finance leader in the NFP sector, remember you are more than a numbers person, you are a mission enabler. Keep showing up with clarity and driving trust through transparency. Thank you again Kevin!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#304 Why Your Most Profitable Product Might Be Losing You Money Pauline Healey Founder, Logical BI
Q: What is future for you and Logical BI beyond traditional CFO services?
The guest discusses expanding into a scalable membership model (Profit Harmony Hub) to provide ongoing insights, training, and advisory resources to a broader range of businesses at a lower monthly cost, complementing client engagements with flexible, knowledge-based support.
#304 Why Your Most Profitable Product Might Be Losing You Money Pauline Healey Founder, Logical BI
Q: So Pauline, what kind of factory floor revealed the management pack card?
Opening up to shop-floor conversations reveals where metrics hide in plain sight; speaking directly with operators uncovers waste and bottlenecks that drive the numbers, and then you can tailor the management pack to address those real issues.
#303 The True Cost of AI: What CFOs Need to Know Ed Barrow Founder & CEO, Cloud Capital
Q: How should CFOs approach pricing and governance when customers drive AI costs?
CFOs should collaborate with engineering early, understand token consumption drivers, implement guardrails, and consider pricing models that reflect usage and value delivered rather than relying on old fixed-margin SaaS assumptions, especially as committed pricing and data-center costs rise.
#303 The True Cost of AI: What CFOs Need to Know Ed Barrow Founder & CEO, Cloud Capital
Q: Tell me a little bit about Cloud Capital and what you do for CFOs.
Cloud Capital helps CFOs and engineering teams unify and allocate AI and compute costs across internal use and product usage, forecast how these costs will scale, and underwrite commitments with cloud providers to capture discounts—all delivered through a free software platform and an outcome-based pricing model.
#301 Could Your High Standards Be Hurting Your Team? Jeanné Els GrowCFO Mentor
Q: Can you tell us about your background and what brought you to GrowCFO as a facilitator?
Jeanné shares a transition from corporate finance roles across multiple countries to founding Sailor, driven by a passion for facilitation, coaching, and empowering teams. She describes discovering finance business partnering as a broader capability that connects finance with the rest of the organization, and how that realization led to joining GrowCFO's facilitator team.
