Taylor Otstot, Vice President Finance, Dashlane joined GoDaddy (now a $30billion valued) domain registry, domain registrar and web hosting company before their IP. In 8 years he climbed to senior Director of Finance running an FP&A team of 14. From this experience and as VP Finance at DashLane he says he hires for 3 things: curiosity, ambition, and finance leaders who are service-oriented. “If you bring those three things to the table, you're able to wade through a lot of the ambiguity that comes with those decision making processes.”

Also in this episode:

  • Finance and FP&A as antidote to the machine of Big 4
  • 3- 4 years in audit as the “perfect amount”
  • Getting to strategy in FP&A
  • Partnership vs accountability as a false choice for FP&A
  • Improv comedy having its moment in finance
  • The Tarantino approach to finance presentations
