This week, we sit down with Erik Nakamura, CFO at Journal Technologies for a conversation that goes far beyond where AI fits inside finance.
Erik breaks down how modern finance teams can:
Fix broken workflows before automating them
Use AI intentionally, not everywhere
Empower people with clearer processes and better tools
Build calmer, more predictable operations
Shift finance from “events” to reliable, repeatable systems
Free teams to focus on strategic work – not admin
It’s a grounded, human-first look at how leaders can scale finance teams without burning them out and how AI becomes a genuine advantage when it’s guided thoughtfully.
