CFO Brew, alongside EY’s Global and Americas Strategy Markets Leader, Myles Corson, tries to better understand the role of the modern CFO and the priorities for their business. Hear advice, both management styles and more technical tips, for business leaders grappling with generative AI, economic headwinds and market volatility, an ever-evolving regulatory landscape, and more.

About the Event

As CFOs search for a more applicable title to capture just how expansive their responsibilities have become, the “in-house influencer” might be rising to the top of that list (of course with honorable mentions to “corporate swiss army knife” and “Simone Biles of finance”). No, that doesn’t mean they’re landing brand deals or sending you to a link in their bio (at least not that we know of).

Instead, the most successful CFOs are now serving as an integral collaborator and decision-maker alongside their C-Suite peers. Once solely anchored in budget management, CFOs are putting what they know about the company checkbook to use, and stepping into conversations around strategic planning, technological integration, driving faster growth, and even digital transformation. With so much to stay on top of, how are financial leaders balancing it all and what exactly are they influencing their peers about?

Join CFO Brew, alongside EY’s Global and Americas Strategy Markets Leader, Myles Corson, to better understand the role of the modern CFO and the priorities for their business. Hear advice, both management styles and more technical tips, for business leaders grappling with generative AI, economic headwinds and market volatility, an ever-evolving regulatory landscape, and more. Following this segment, Mark Floisand, EVP, Global Product Marketing at Sage will join CFO Brew to discuss how AI can elevate a CFO’s increasingly busy workflow.
