Why You Need to Become a Storyteller w/ Liz Barhydt
February 9, 2021
When you think of financial reporting and accounting presentations, storytelling probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. Most finance professionals want to report the numbers, and then continue on with their lives.
But what if the WHY behind the numbers is just as important as the numbers themselves? What if storytelling is not only something that makes sense to focus on, but is something that you ought to be paying a lot more attention to than you are right now?
On this episode of CFO Weekly, our guest is Liz Barhydt. Liz is the Chief Financial Officer at Directive, a performance marketing agency specifically serving SaaS companies, helping them be better marketers, drive growth, and generate better return on their marketing dollars. But one of the most impactful things we discussed was the need for better storytelling when it comes to finance and accounting.
