She went on to become Senior Vice President of Investor Relations at Starbucks, managing nearly $130 billion in market capitalization. She sat in boardrooms with Howard Schultz and Mellody Hobson. She is a Wharton graduate, an Emory professor, and a former Miss Black Georgia USA.
In this episode of The Diary of a CFO: Live in Atlanta, I sat down in person with Tiffany Willis. We talked about what carried her from that windowsill to Wall Street. How she learned the art of storytelling as a finance leader and why most finance professionals get it wrong. The framework she uses to get buy-in from people who do not report to her. How being Miss Black Georgia USA gave her on-the-ground training for boardroom communication. Why she believes the skill most finance leaders are missing has nothing to do with numbers. And why she wrote her book Own Your Narrative to help others stop hiding from their story and start leading from it.
This is the first episode of The Diary of a CFO: Live in Atlanta, a limited in-person series where I sit down with CFOs and senior finance leaders right here in Atlanta.
