ABOUT JASON APPLEBAUM

I\'m a transformative Finance & Operations leader that builds bridges between functions and creates industry-leading high performing teams. I\'ve spent years outside Finance so I\'ve seen more of a business end-to-end than most Finance leaders, and I quickly create cross-functional synergy since I\'ve been in my counterparts\' shoes.I create stretching yet achievable plans in record time with stakeholder buy-in, and then work with leaders and the business in a hands-on fashion to ensure those shared objectives are delivered. I\'m curious, so come with questions and ideas to involve others which builds relationships and helps me rapidly understand nuances of a business, and determine the levers to improve performance, and how best to orient cross-functional teams to drive success.I bring the business and people together, developing diverse groups into cohesive teams that build adaptable processes that drive continuous improvement. I am someone who fills people up, improving engagement, unlocking discretionary effort, and help people become their best selves.By working across the business and creating great teams I\'ve eliminated millions in costs while accelerating growth. I expand planning timeframes with more accurate and more adaptable plans, updated more frequently.I\'ve been consistently successful across multiple industries (CPG, retail, marketing), with the unifying trait being a focus on the consumer. I enjoy this environment the most, and it helps in providing decision support, ensuring people consider the total business context, and what\'s important to customers & stakeholders.
