OUR VALUES

SENSE OF SERVICE
Good people pay for themselves! We always try to make ours this famous American saying: every working day must end with a tangible result so that the client is satisfied with a strong ROI. An interim manager is an investment. The value he creates must be greater than his cost.
OPERATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS

The job of CFO requires rigor and operational excellence. As we cannot be the specialists in everything, we will tell you during the briefing the issues on which we are less comfortable and we may not accept some assignments that are not in the heart of our services offering. But we will be pleased to accept the assignments that we are sure to be capable to deliver with operational effectiveness.

HONESTY
It goes without saying when it comes to finance. But honesty also includes intellectual honesty. Carrying out our job with ethics increases our impact.

TRANSPARENCY
Regular reporting or permanent reporting, delegation of power or not, the interim CFO assignment must be exactly tailored to the client wishes. To avoid any unfortunate misunderstanding, the interim CFO must report on a regular basis on what he does, his successes or the difficulties he is facing.
ENTHUSIASM

Gone are the days when the CFO was seen as a sad and conservative character. He can also be smiling, energetic and enthusiastic!

SIMPLICITY
"What is conceived is clear.
And the words to say it come easily!" (Boileau)
No need for complicated formulations between us. Clarity and simplicity are so much more effective.

AGILITY AND
PRAGMATISM
We are not here to sell days and days of sterile advice. Our wish is to be quickly operational, agile and pragmatic so as to always maximize our impact and your satisfaction.

PROXIMITY
Understanding the mindset of the client and the context of the company are key success factors. In this course, a close proximity between the client and Finance Inside is necessary, at least at the start of our job, so as to increase its effectiveness.
