CFO Interview Preparation Guide
Media training requires iteration, not one-off prep sessions
Getting comfortable with interviews means practicing repeatedly until your responses feel natural.
But booking mock interviews with real people is expensive, time-consuming, and hard to schedule.
You need a way to practice on-demand, get real conversational feedback, and iterate until your delivery is sharp.
The limitations of solo recording tools
Video editors can't add conversational structure
Post-production tools can trim rambling but can't retroactively create the back-and-forth rhythm of a real conversation.
AI transcription doesn't improve delivery
Getting a transcript of your monologue just documents the problem—it doesn't solve the absence of conversational dynamics.
Scheduling software doesn't solve availability
Making it easier to book guests doesn't change the fact that you're dependent on someone else's calendar.
The missing mechanism: Conversation creates clarity
Conversation isn't just about exchanging words—it's a cognitive feedback loop. When someone asks a follow-up question, your brain refines the idea in real-time.
This is why interviews feel more natural than monologues. The other person's questions give your thoughts shape and direction.
Without this mechanism, you're left guessing what's interesting, what needs more detail, and when to move on.
