GrowCFO | CFO Training

The combination of the group workshops and the one-to-one professional mentoring complement one another really well and it is great to share perspectives with people working in other companies.

I loved that it combined theory with perspectives from peers – we could all see other perspectives on similar problems. It created more awareness for me and allowed me to reflect on how I behave.
