About This Course

Finance is entering a new era. AI is no longer experimental—it is redefining how CFOs deliver insight, speed, accuracy, and strategic clarity. But real transformation doesn’t come from adopting AI tools; it comes from building the right KPIs, processes, and governance to ensure AI delivers trusted results.

In this executive session, we will show how leading finance organizations are applying AI to modernize the close, strengthen compliance, and create real-time intelligence across the business. You’ll learn how to design AI-ready KPIs, build continuous decision-making into your workflows, and deploy a practical four-phase roadmap that connects innovation to measurable outcomes.

Who Should Attend:

  • Chief Financial Officers (CFOs)
  • VPs of Finance and Financial Controllers
  • Directors of Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A)
  • Senior executives responsible for tech budgeting and capital allocation

What You Will Learn:

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Move Beyond the Hype: Understand the difference between vanity AI metrics and bottom-line financial impact.
  • Implement the New KPI Framework: Master a newly developed suite of KPIs specifically designed to track AI-driven revenue generation, cost reduction, and productivity gains.
  • Calculate True AI ROI: Learn how to account for the hidden costs of AI—such as compute power, data structuring, and talent—to determine accurate Return on Investment.
  • Manage AI Financial Risk: Develop strategies to financially govern AI implementations, mitigating the risks of runaway cloud costs and shadow IT.
  • Bridge the Tech-Finance Gap: Learn how to effectively partner with CIOs and CTOs to ensure AI investments align directly with corporate financial objectives.
