Some writers might look askance at serving two bosses at once. In this case, I couldn’t have been happier to write and project manage for two companies joining forces to release a long-form thought leadership asset on the topics of “quiet hiring” and finance transformation. In the course of research for this 3,000-word cited paper, I coined a new term — “loud hiring” — and my thesis suggested that finance companies could practice it, even amidst an industry-wide talent crunch, with the support of critical finance transformation tools.
Gotta love a happy customer: one client reported, “Your unparalleled project management, transparent communication, and exceptionally crafted writing are truly admirable. You kept this entire process organized, streamlined, and so very enjoyable.” Another trumpeted, “Ringing bells…and doing cartwheels! I was thoroughly captivated from start to finish. This is truly a remarkable piece of work! Can’t wait for the market to gobble this up! Very exciting, and so timely.”
The paper, released across multiple channels (BlackLine and UHY websites, LinkedIn, etc.), was so well received that the clients asked me to build a webinar on the same topic where CFOs and other finance leaders across the country were able to earn continuing education credit.
