Course description
75% of the finance professionals we speak to are uncertain about what AI will mean for them in the future. Sign up for our interactive morning session on 5 December to understand:
- What does AI mean for me as a finance professional?
- How do I apply AI in my business today?
- How can I harness AI for the future?
In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, the finance function is undergoing a fundamental transformation, shifting from a traditional transaction-focused role to one centred around strategic value creation.This course offers a foundational understanding of how data, automation, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are driving this change.
Participants will explore how the crawl (automation), walk (ML) and run (AI) are empowering finance teams to gain deeper insights from data, automate processes and enable smarter decision-making. We will dive into the critical role AI plays as a key enabler, as well as practical strategies for weaving a holistic technical architecture into the fabric of your finance operating model.
Through case studies and interactive discussions, participants will understand how to build a forward-looking finance function that thrives in a data-driven, AI-powered world.
At the end of the session we will be hosting a networking lunch which we hope you will join us for.
