What was their requirement?
A multinational industrial conglomerate recently appointed a new CFO, who had been promoted from within the organisation. While the CFO was exceptionally skilled in finance, they faced new challenges that required them to sharpen their soft skills. Expert guidance was crucial for effectively managing stakeholder relations, resolving conflicts, and other important aspects of the role.
Why WisdomCircle and how did we help?
The conglomerate understood the value of having a mentor and approached WisdomCircle to find a suitable guide. The ideal mentor would be a retired CFO from a similar multinational conglomerate background, with prior experience in coaching senior executives. After all, specific needs demand specialised platforms.
