📊 CFOs: The Hidden Costs You’re Already Carrying

Every CFO can read a balance sheet. But some of the biggest leaks in your P&L never appear as line items. They hide inside how your teams communicate, decide, and align.
1. Turnover Costs You Didn’t Budget For
The average cost of replacing one leader = 1.5–2x their salary. In a 1,000-person company with 15% turnover, that’s $7.5M in annual losses.
2. Decision Latency
Every week a strategic decision is delayed, your company bleeds value: stalled revenue, opportunity cost, and compounding project delays. For some organizations, a single month of delay can equal $1–2M in lost productivity.
3. Rework & Misalignment
Cross-functional teams that “redo” work because they weren’t aligned the first time. One Fortune 500 study found up to 30% of project cost is wasted this way. For a $10M project, that’s $3M gone.

“You saved us money in ways the balance sheet couldn’t name — until it did.”
