Welcome to The CFO Project Podcast, where host Adam Lean explores the evolving world of CFO services and accounting leadership. Each episode features insights from professionals who are redefining what it means to grow an accounting practice, offer real advisory value, and build a firm that lasts. Whether you're a firm owner, CFO, or aspiring leader, this show will help you break free from outdated mindsets and thrive in today's competitive environment.
In this powerful episode, Adam sits down with Randy Crabtree—partner at Tri-Merit and mental health advocate—to discuss how vulnerability in leadership is transforming accounting firms. Randy shares his personal journey, including how a life-changing stroke and years of mental health challenges led him to reevaluate his role and purpose. He explains how leaning into vulnerability as a leader not only sparked 12x firm growth, but also drastically improved team morale, innovation, and retention. This episode dives deep into how CFOs and firm owners can embrace authentic leadership to build sustainable, people-first organizations.
