  • Excellent FP&A Resourse!

    I met Paul in Oct 2022 at the AFP conference. He has a tremendous passion for FP&A! He is knowledgeable and entertaining to listen to. He finds amazing FP&A talent to talk to on his podcast and he is a seasoned host…I believe this is his third podcast and has done hundreds of episodes. This is a fantastic resource for FP&A professionals to listen to!
