In Today’s episode of The AI Opportunity we sit down with Kevin Appleby, Head of Partnerships at GrowCFO, to unpack what’s actually changing in finance – and what isn’t.
Kevin’s core observation surprised me; the problems in finance haven’t changed in 20 years. The tech finally has.
We talk about:
- Why FP&A teams are overwhelmed by “too many solutions, not enough clarity”
- A simple framework to choose the right tools without getting lost in the noise
- What real AI looks like in finance (and how to spot the smoke-and-mirrors demos)
- How leaders can help their teams feel confident instead of threatened
- Why the biggest bottleneck isn’t AI at all — it’s data quality
If you’re a CFO or COO deciding where to start with AI, this episode gives you a grounded, no-hype roadmap.
