Reinventing Finance for the Future Together
Hosted by Amazon Web Services
AI is reshaping how finance organizations operate — compressing decision cycles, redefining skill requirements, and demanding faster change management. The opportunity is enormous: CFOs who embrace AI-powered ways of working can shift from weeks of manual analysis to real-time insights, freeing their Finance teams to focus on the strategic "why" behind the numbers. In this session, we'll share what we've learned — what's worked, what surprised us, and how to take practical next steps, no matter where your Finance teams are in their journey. This is a conversation, not a blueprint — because every finance team's path will look different.
Join this session to discuss:
- Aligning Finance function transformation initiatives and organizational design with business objectives
- Accounting for transformation fatigue, skills gaps, and other cultural considerations that impact finance team strategy
- Fostering Finance team culture of innovation and improvement within the bounds of cost management and regulatory compliance
