CEOs fear CFOs more than job security threats

A recent stress index report from Boston Consulting Group reveals that chief executive officers are experiencing significant pressure from growth targets and board expectations. Notably, CEOs identify their own Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) as the greatest threat to their job security. This dynamic suggests a potentially strained relationship between top executives and their finance leaders, possibly stemming from differing priorities or intense performance demands. The findings underscore the complex internal pressures faced by corporate leadership.
