That Great Business ShowShow Notes
Most business owners think profit means success. It doesn’t.
ON Episode 286 of That Great Business Show, Conall Ó Móráin sits down with Caroline Kirrane, CFA, former Central Bank economist, and the person Irish executives call when they realise they’ve been nodding at spreadsheets they don’t understand.
This episode explains, in plain English: • Why profit is not cash • How fast growth can bankrupt you • The silent danger of “bad revenue” • Why Ryanair’s ruthless simplicity is a masterclass in strategy • The real reason businesses run out of money while sales are booming
If you run a business in Ireland, the UK or anywhere with invoices and overdrafts, this episode could save you.
