I met all my goals and played a pivotal role in fostering communication and collaboration
within the team. However, I feel that I need to enlist the input of other key stakeholders
in defining priorities, milestones and resource requirement. My devotion to
accomplishment results and ‘make it easy’ for the stakeholders is what got in the way of
stakeholder participation which it would be important to point out is important.
Factor 4: Leadership / Supervision
In my duties as CFO, I effectively conducted by leadership and supervisory role in
support to the administration and corporate and financial functions, and was operationally
driven to effect change.
The supervisory duties included training, budgeting, mentoring, coaching, performance
evaluation and monitoring tasks
I also advised the Chief Administrative Officer on the various corporate priorities and
policies, bylaws among others which effectively achieved objectives and improved the
departments operations.
I took a leadership role in ensuring that the firm maintained public sector compliance
I also analyzed the various legislations and the effects that they had on the company.
Factor 5: Communication
I effectively participated in value creation as part of the leadership team, and with a keen
understanding of the mindset of the organization, I was able to act as the financial
highlight of the firm.
EMPLOYEE SELF EVALUATION 5
I communicate with the CEO on a regular basis on a strategic and operational business
level, providing the administration with the necessary decision making support, plans that
addressed challenges facing the business and risk-adjusted forecasts.
The job is too task focused and required a generation of many financial reports, I helped
to create a link within the business and created clear and simple strategic financial
blueprints that could be easily understood by all stakeholders, even those who had no
prior accounting competence
Factor 6: Resource Management
The landmark policies and methodologies that I developed as highlighted in Factor 2
evidences the very fact that I was able to save the firm a fortune had the alternative of
enlisting the services of an external advisor been pursued.
In a labor market where the role of the CFO is changing in the management of human
capital demands, I represented the corresponding change in bolstering the relationship
between the corporate finance and human resource functions, though the two departments
have historically not worked in collaboration.
I played an important role in human capital decisions, besides setting and allocating the
human resource budgets, which has been the traditional role of this office. I took a
leadership role therefore, in decisions to do with human capital, which is important with
the appreciation that human capital is a value driver, and not just merely an expense. That
collaboration was integral in helping the company achieve its goals.
