On this episode, Stephen sits down with Brian Kingston, the Flockstar of goodr’s Money Herd (aka Chief Financial Officer of the finance department) to talk about how he helps create a stable financial foundation so we can stay recklessly committed to fun. They discuss:
- how being an artist, paddleboarder, and growing up in Manhattan Beach led Kingston to becoming the leader he is today.
- goodr’s growing financial team and how they’re bringing Business Intelligence into sharp focus.
- how Kingston’s background in sales, marketing, and content creation is invaluable to his success as a CFO
- the radical fiscal transparency inside of goodr (and how strange it was to him at first)
- what the interview process was like to land the position of goodr CFO as an external hire
- predicting the financial future of a rapidly growing company like goodr (plus how “Levermania” is our secret weapon to staying agile)
- how Kingston promotes and protects financial discipline at goodr without infringing on autonomy or fun.
