Inside one finance leader’s AI playbook
With multi-award-winning AI expert Inbal Rodnay and Harris Real Estate finance leader Jesse Chapman
The board wants an AI strategy, your team’s already experimenting, and the costs keep adding up. No one has all the answers yet, but some finance leaders are a few steps ahead.
Inbal Rodnay, 2026 Top 50 Women in Accounting and 2025 Fintech Leader of the Year, has helped thousands of finance professionals use AI with confidence. In this session she’s joined by Jesse Chapman, who leads finance at Harris Real Estate, one of Australia’s fastest-growing real estate groups. Jesse will take you inside the AI workflows his team relies on, while Inbal will show you how to build the same results with the tools you already have. What's covered in the session >
