  • The CFO who ran her own race but didn’t run (or swim or bike) alone
    On LinkedIn, the congratulatory messages poured in for Janice Stucke, CPA, after she completed an Ironman triathlon in October. Those messages all had named authors — her LinkedIn contacts. One message, from a still unknown author, attached to her bike on race day, continues to resonate with Stucke, the CFO of CREW Network. In an earlier podcast episode, Stucke detailed her nontraditional path to becoming a CPA and, later, a CFO. In this conversation, Stucke recaps the obstacles she faced in the race, how problem-solving skills played a role in her crossing the finish line, and why she is thankful for a group of friends she first met at the Future of Finance Summit. What you’ll learn from this episode: ·         A recap of Stucke’s “exhilarating” day completing the triathlon. ·         The reason Stucke felt nauseous during the run segment — and strategies she tried to overcome the feeling. ·         The message that inspired Stucke — one that an unknown person put on her bike. ·         The meaningful support of a group of finance leaders Stucke first met at the Future of Finance Summit. ·         How completing the race helps in her role as a CFO. ·         What her next big goal might be and why technology implementations will be prioritized this year. ·         Why Stucke enjoys being around others who set audacious goals.
