商品描述
CFOs are increasingly expected to lead technology-driven transformation, yet many lack formal technology backgrounds or dedicated data science support. Glenn Hopper spent more than 20 years in corporate finance, including 15 years as CFO of private equity-backed companies, before founding RoboCFO, an AI consultancy that helps CFOs modernize data, analytics, and AI implementation. Drawing on that operating experience, closing books, managing boards, and deploying the tools he now advises other CFOs on, this book gives finance leaders the specific, actionable guidance they need to make informed technology decisions, integrate AI into existing processes, and lead organizational transformation with confidence.
The AI-Ready CFO provides a clear methodology for evaluating AI platforms, negotiating effectively with vendors, and ensuring successful deployments. Hopper explains the strengths and limitations of AI technology in plain terms, equipping readers to ask the right questions and avoid costly missteps. The book addresses how to integrate generative AI into financial workflows, covering practical considerations from initial assessment through full-scale implementation, with relatable case studies drawn from real-world finance environments.
Beyond technology selection, the book tackles the leadership challenges that determine whether AI initiatives succeed or fail. Hopper provides guidance on reorganizing finance teams, structuring training programs, and preparing staff for new workflows. Dedicated sections address data governance frameworks, internal controls, risk management, and compliance requirements. Readers also gain strategies for navigating the complexities of organizational change, including stakeholder communication and building cross-functional alignment around AI-driven initiatives.
Written for CFOs, corporate finance professionals, and business school students, The AI-Ready CFO connects technological promise with practical execution in finance. Whether leading a first AI pilot or scaling existing automation efforts, readers will find a structured approach to evaluating technology, managing vendors, restructuring teams, and governing data. This book serves as a strategic companion for any finance leader tasked with driving digital transformation.
