Most organizations still make critical decisions on top of rigid planning cycles, fragmented data, and limited AI adoption—slowing response to disruption and constraining innovation. Drawing on new IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) research, this webinar explores how finance leaders can break through those structural barriers by modernizing their operating model and establishing a connected, AI‑enabled finance backbone. You will see how integrated data platforms and AI‑powered forecasting can improve decision speed, strengthen governance, and enable finance to guide capital to the highest‑value opportunities across the enterprise.
We will walk through a practical roadmap for shifting to a dynamic, value‑based finance operating model that aligns finance with enterprise decision bodies and elevates finance talent into true strategic partners. Using IBV findings and real‑world practices, we will demonstrate how embedded AI, adaptive planning cadences, and agile budgeting models work together to deliver more accurate forecasts, more effective capital allocation, and faster transformation outcomes. Attendees will leave with concrete steps to evaluate their current maturity and design an execution plan that balances speed, trust, and control.
