One of the big news stories of last week was Jack Dorsey stepping down as CEO of Twitter, and the market's response to that news was to push up Twitter's stock price by almost 10%. That reaction suggested, at least for the moment, that investors believed that Twitter would be better off without Dorsey running it, a surprise to those in the founder-worship camp.

Remember that flurry of CARES act tax credits, stimulus, and tax deferrals? There was lots of free money in the CARES act, but one component needs to be repaid this December: the social security tax deferral. When Covid-19 first began, it was easy to check a box in payroll systems to automatically defer social security tax payments. That means your business incurred social security tax expense, but did not pay it in 2020.

Those Who Have Knowledge, Don’t Predict. By Michael Stier. “Those who have knowledge, don’t predict. Those who predict, don’t have knowledge.” – Lao Tzu. Some business owners downplay the complexity of Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) and mistakenly task their accounting team with this crucial function, or hope their CPA firm can be of help.

In the climb from contributor to leader, the rules quietly change. If you’re aiming for the summit, the air gets thinner—and what got you here won’t be enough to get you to the top (a concept first popularized by Marshall Goldsmith in his book What Got You Here Won’t Get You There ). What made you successful early in your finance career—technical accuracy, sharp analysis, flawless execution—won’t be what carries you to the next level.

This blog is a wakeup call. Inflation is here to stay without substantial intervention. Intervention isn’t going to happen until those making the calls acknowledge this is not a transitory situation and implement necessary actions to include raising interest rates. However, as you will see outlined below, even that will most likely not tame the monster.

It’s not a new concept, but it is a lesson that we are reminded of constantly. Those not wanting to sound clichéd change the way they state it, but the overarching message is that if there is no plan, there is no goal to meet, so it’s unlikely that you or your team know if the goal was reached. But more importantly, the team is not working together in moving towards the goal.

The numbers don’t lie -- or so the saying goes – but they rarely tell the whole story either, just like how the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) encompasses more than just finance and accounting. Once upon a time, “CFO” was a reasonably prescriptive, even possibly slightly intimidating title. It used to be pretty much all about the numbers – but the narrative has changed.
