Over 25+ years in finance, I've come to believe the most useful thing a finance person does in a fast-moving business isn't reporting — it's framing. Cutting a tangled problem down to the two or three decisions that actually matter. Translating between a board that wants certainty and an operation where the answer hasn't been built yet. Holding the strategic question open while the tactical one gets solved.
