// EPISODE SUMMARY

Marco Villarreal dissects the forecasting problem that plagues finance teams at every size — the gap between the model and reality that widens every month. He covers how to build driver-based forecasts that stay connected to the business, why scenario planning is more valuable than a single-point forecast, and the process discipline required to make forecasting actually useful rather than a compliance exercise.
