Get to know Jessica Kashyap and learn how Focus Search Partners, A Vaco Company CFO Solutions’ practice can help you.

Are you an #operational #CFO looking to move into the #CEO seat? Now's a great time. <<CFOs have historically been known for number crunching, but they are increasingly taking on more operational responsibilities. That helped a record number of finance chiefs ascend to the top job last year at America’s biggest companies. Among the firms represented in the S&P 500 and Fortune 500, 8.4% of them promoted a finance chief to CEO, according to exclusive data from Crist Kolder Associates, an executive search firm. That’s up from 5.8% a decade ago.>> https://lnkd.in/ehhwwhmK

"We thought Jessica Kashyap would be the perfect leader, [because] she has 10 years as a colleague here with our business, she's a 'recovering CPA,' as she likes to say, and she's easy to work with," said Monica Foster, managing director of Interim Executive Services at Focus Search Partners, A Vaco Company. "Those three things became clear in determining how we can be net givers to the CFO community who are so near and dear to our heart."
