S3, EP4: From Advisor to Decision Maker: Chris Allenby’s Leap into the CFO Seat
Q: How did you navigate interacting with a board as CFO in a family-owned business?

S2, EP9: Lorenz Haefeli's s Journey from Sydney Shores to Bailey Nelson: Driving Passion, Financial Precision & Global Experience
Q: How do you balance personal life and leadership responsibilities as a CFO?
Balance comes from routines and prioritizing family, such as weekend walks with my young child, which helps keep me grounded and prevents work from dominating mood and decision making; it also informs a broader view of what success means beyond numbers.
S2, EP9: Lorenz Haefeli's s Journey from Sydney Shores to Bailey Nelson: Driving Passion, Financial Precision & Global Experience
Q: What attracted you to Bailey Nelson and how did the role evolve there?
I was drawn to the brand's playful disruption in a growing yet manageable company. Starting as a financial controller in Sydney, I gained a broad view of the finance function, saw how the founders run the business, and eventually took on more responsibility to become CFO, all while expanding into Canada and New Zealand.
S2, EP9: Lorenz Haefeli's s Journey from Sydney Shores to Bailey Nelson: Driving Passion, Financial Precision & Global Experience
Q: What prompted the move from Subaru to Tesla, and what did you learn about working in a highly centralized, fast-paced environment?
Tesla offered an intense, fast-moving, scrappy environment where decisions were centralized at headquarter level; it taught me how to adapt quickly, manage energy-related initiatives, and understand the balance between rapid execution and governance in a global company.
