The EQ Playbook for Post-Merger Reality

Cint CFO Niels Boons is interviewed for the CFO Thought Leader Podcast.

Listen to the full interview with Neils Boon – CFO at Cint – on the CFO Thought Leader Podcast.

When Cint CFO Niels Boon joined the team 18 months ago, he was up against a challenge stepping into the company post-merger, but before many key systems and processes had been merged.

“I like special situations,” Boon told interviewer Jack Sweeney while recording for the CFO Thought Leader Podcast. “There has to be an edge — something that needs to change or change faster. The company IPO’d in 2021, then acquired its American competitor for about $1B, but the businesses were never truly integrated.”

“The opportunity was integration: two main companies (plus smaller deals) still operating separately. It was a construction site… and I was the fifth CFO in four years. I like that challenge. Let’s do it.”

In this episode, Boon discusses the challenges and opportunities that excite him in his current role, the career journey that led him here, and lessons about leadership he learned up along the way.
