About this Episode
What if your AI strategy is already at risk, not because your team is behind on AI, but because finance is trying to run the future on systems built for the past? In this episode, Alex Curran, CEO of Aptitude Software, discusses why AI success in finance is an architecture issue, a data issue, and a leadership issue. Curran shares her SCALE framework for assessing whether a finance function is ready to support AI, explains the emerging finance ERP category, and offers guidance for financial leaders who feel they are running out of time to modernize.
