In today’s boardroom, power belongs to those who think in probabilities.
Gone are the days when instincts and spreadsheets were enough. Modern leadership demands something more: a mind that can navigate uncertainty using structured reasoning, probabilistic thinking, and the clarity of quantitative strategy.
In The Boardroom Quant, Hayden Van Der Post, author of Financial Engineering for CFOs, delivers a cutting-edge framework for using data, models, and probabilities to shape executive decision-making, influence stakeholders, and lead with intellectual authority.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- How to build executive dashboards that model outcomes, not just track metrics
- Ways to use Bayesian inference, Monte Carlo simulation, and decision trees to guide high-stakes calls
- Techniques for presenting complex models to non-technical decision makers
- The psychology of data persuasion, and why raw logic alone isn’t enough
- Real-world case studies of CFOs, CMOs, and COOs using quant frameworks to win internal battles and secure buy-in
Whether you're facing M&A, capital allocation, or product bets in volatile markets—this book gives you the tools to model the future, own the narrative, and become the most valuable mind in the room.
Quantify your edge. Influence the outcome. Lead with precision.
