Farhan Naqvi, former CFO of iLearningEngines, is redefining the role of finance leaders in today’s fast-evolving business landscape. In his latest LinkedIn article, Naqvi emphasizes that CFOs must move beyond traditional financial management and become key architects of business strategy. He advocates for aligning capital with long-term purpose, treating M&A as a proactive growth tool, and viewing exit planning as a strategic milestone rather than a last-minute decision. Drawing from his experience at iLearningEngines, Naqvi shows how thoughtful financial leadership can drive sustainable growth, innovation, and lasting enterprise value. His insights are especially relevant in sectors facing investor scrutiny and capital challenges. Strategic finance, he argues, is now central to building business resilience and competitive edge.
