What’s Rarely Measured Matters Most
CFO Thought Leader is a media platform dedicated to the seat of leadership in finance. We believe what’s rarely measured—emotional intelligence, storytelling, and human insight—matters most.
While others cover the numbers, we focus on the narratives—spotlighting CFOs who redefine strategy, shape culture, and lead with purpose. Through our podcasts, videos, newsletters, and social storytelling, we expose the power of CFO EQ—the leadership intelligence that drives lasting impact.
Today’s finance leaders can’t rely on others to carry their message. They must own it. CFO Thought Leader gives those narratives visibility, credibility, and connection—linking CFOs to one another, sponsors to decision-makers, and finance stories to the broader business community.
Our Journey
A little more than a decade ago, the worlds of business media and corporate finance were both undergoing profound change. Print journalism—the medium that had defined my 20-year career as an editor—was collapsing. At the same time, the role of the CFO was rapidly expanding, evolving beyond the numbers to encompass strategy, communication, and culture.

Out of this dual transformation came an idea: what if there were a platform built not to report on CFOs, but to amplify their voices? And what if that platform—powered by the rise of digital media—could become a vehicle for finance leaders to share not only what they know, but who they are?
Podcasting, it turned out, was perfectly timed. As CFOs began taking a more visible role in shaping strategy and leading transformation, the microphone offered them something invaluable: a way to reveal their emotional intelligence—their capacity to connect, to inspire, and to lead with authenticity.
From this convergence, CFO Thought Leader was born: a media platform that treats storytelling as a strategic skill and emotional intelligence as a measurable force in modern finance.
What began as an experiment in narrative has since become a movement—one that continues to help CFOs, and those aspiring to the role, find their voice and lead with it. –Jack Sweeney
