  Chris Cook is a
  I am a transformational chief financial officer, willing to make difficult executive decisions and innately balance trade-offs between business and finance perspectives across stakeholders to achieve optimal business outcomes. I have a proven track record of managing complex financial operations within matrixed environments. Some of my successes have included delivering multi-million-dollar EBITDA while overseeing multi-billion-dollar annual budgets by integrating acquisitions, quickly responding to revenue/profit outlook changes, rebalancing discretionary SG&A expense, and prioritizing seller capacity and capabilities. In order to establish appropriate targets to achieve the desired outcomes, my approach is to first consider the underlying motivations of all stakeholders, quickly determine areas of conflict or agreement, and then sensitively negotiate across functions to achieve the best results. Often I have found it can be more more effective to review and then pivot the strategy, rather than focus on how to reduce a particular line item, while always keeping the client in mind. Being a culture transformation champion in prominent geographies has allowed me to develop strong mentor and leadership relationships with my teams, peers, and people throughout the organization. My breadth of experience across the financial industry includes having facilitated a managed-infrastructure services business spinoff, interacting with the largest UK banks, providing feedback to external regulatory organizations, and engaging with Wall Street analysts through investor relations.
