We’re rewinding to where it all began. In the very first episode of the CFO 4.0 Podcast, Hannah Munro sat down with digital transformation expert Phil Raynor (now Lead Delivery Manager at the UK Home Office) to unpack what makes or breaks a transformation programme — and how finance leaders can navigate change with confidence.

In this CFO 4.0 Revisited edition, we revisit the timeless lessons that still shape transformation success today. From planning and communication to leadership and culture, this conversation remains as relevant as ever for modern CFOs leading digital change.

🔑 In this episode, you’ll discover:

The key differences between projects and programmes — and why that distinction matters
What defines a truly successful digital transformation
The most common causes of failure and how to prevent them
The CFO’s critical role in managing expectations and driving alignment
How to plan, communicate, and secure stakeholder buy-in for change
Why “slowing down to speed up” is the secret to long-term success
