C-SUITE PANEL

WHAT KEPT YOU UP AT NIGHT?

HOW DID YOU MANAGE THROUGH IT?

Paul Fletcher

Managing Director

Deloitte

About the Speaker

A senior leader at Deloitte, bringing deep experience in advising organizations on complex financial, operational, and strategic transformation. He works closely with executive teams to help them navigate change, strengthen performance, and build resilience in an evolving business environment. Paul is known for his practical, insights-driven approach and his ability to translate strategy into measurable results for finance and leadership teams.

About the Session

This session brings together seasoned CFOs to share the pivotal moments that tested their leadership, judgment, and resilience. Through candid “war stories,” they’ll explore how they navigated sudden market shocks, disruptive technologies, tariff threats, supply‑chain failures, and unexpected shifts in customer behaviour—including the rise of stablecoins in global transactions.

 

The discussion will unpack what kept them up at night during these high‑stakes moments and how they led their organizations through uncertainty. Expect insights on balancing innovation with risk, rebuilding a company on the brink, strengthening controls across complex supply chains, and making decisions when the data is incomplete and the pressure is immense.
