" I have ample experience getting in front of leadership and presenting. In my previous role as finance manager, I would present to the CEO, CFO and other senior leaders during our monthly Finance Review meetings. I always felt the need to prepare in advance for any questions that might arise, and would often circle back promptly on follow-ups that developed during those meetings."
