Leadership Influence: Leading With Conviction, Speed and Influence
CFOs must be the decisive voice in the room, or they’re not in the room. This track sharpens the CFO’s edge on enterprise leadership, board engagement, time discipline and influence across the C-suite.

By 2026, boards won’t tolerate AI theater. This track moves CFOs past experimentation to results: where to double down, where to pull back and how to scale AI with measurable value. We’ll break down AI ROI, tech stack integration, ERP transitions and what it really takes to win the talent and technology race.
