The Ultimate Guide for Nonprofit CFOs

Equipping You with Essential Skills to Build Sustainability for Your Team and Your Organization

You won’t find any green visors in a modern nonprofit accounting department.

For today’s not-for-profit to be successful, the finance function has to be tightly embedded into the goals and strategy of the larger organization. Instead of siloed back-office reporting that only shows past performance, CFOs and their finance teams provide guidance—in partnership with development and leadership—on trends and opportunities.

This guide pulls tips, ideas, and best practices from the Ultimate CFO webinar series, hosted by consultant and former nonprofit CFO Andrew Horrow. Whether you are a finance professional looking to move to the CFO role, or a for-profit CFO wanting a role with more purpose, this guide will help you:

  • Recognize the important skills a nonprofit CFO should have
  • Organize your first 60 days as a nonprofit CFO
  • Build a culture of strong change management
  • Develop a future-focused mindset
