In this episode of CFO Weekly, Melissa Howatson, CFO at Vena Solutions, joins Megan Weis to discuss why CFOs and finance teams should not reinvent the wheel with new tools and processes and why, at times, the best solution might be making current processes more efficient, particularly when it comes to navigating new trends such as AI.

Melissa is a finance leader with a strong operational focus and a proven track record of driving value through strategic execution and business insights. She has successfully guided organizations through the scaling-up phase during periods of rapid growth and is also the host of The CFO Show.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why technology isn’t always the answer to solving your problems
• How to choose scalable tools for your growing business
• The role of AI in shaping the future of finance
