AI for Finance Teams: Faster Close, Sharper Analysis, Stronger Controls Trainer Toolkit by Bodhih Training — built on programmes delivered to 2,000+ companies since 2008.
The workshop is on the calendar. The material isn’t.
AI value lags expectations
Most finance AI has focused on productivity; boards want better decisions too.
Plausible but wrong
AI invents causes and miscalculates — dangerous in board packs and the ledger.
Controls and audit
Auditors ask how AI outputs are reviewed and evidenced.
Picture the evening before your programme.
Picture day one. Your finance team ask AI to summarise a P&L — and catch its calculation error. They run a reconciliation lab and find the duplicate payment AI missed.
In the afternoon, AI explains a revenue miss with “seasonality”. The business notes show a lost customer. Lesson learned for life.
On Day 2 they build three scenarios, ask AI what could make the forecast wrong, turn three pages of numbers into one page with a decision, and design an AI control matrix an auditor would accept.
And you become the trainer finance directors call to make AI pay off.
