After performing CFO duties for 100+ middle market companies, Alan Chaffee came to Vistage with a clear goal: Shift from working in the business, to working on it. “A culture of accountability has changed everything; our staff lives up to their commitments, to our clients, to the company’s culture and to themselves. They want to do a great job; it’s my responsibility to give them the best place to accomplish that.”
Alan’s learnings:
- Lead with definitive goals and expectations, follow up with accountability.
- Empower people with the knowledge that you trust them.
- Culture trumps all — informed by a clear mission and vision.
