In this episode of The Role Forward, our guest is Andi Ruda, the founder and CEO of Rainbow CFO. Prior to starting her own business, Andi worked as the full-time CFO at three different companies.

The experience she gained during that period and the challenges and struggles she saw many companies face when determining their financial strategies, empowered her to dive into entrepreneurship. Her career is now dedicated to helping companies grow and to turning business owners' ideas into reality.

Andi and our host Joe Garafalo discuss the best cash flow reporting practices, the tools she uses, and the steps everyone starting a finance career or aspiring to become a CFO should take.
