Workshop: Future of Finance: Are You Ready?

This workshop will serve as the starting point for a deep-dive discussion on where the finance industry is headed and how individuals and teams can strategically position themselves for success. With 60% of current jobs in finance projected to no longer exist in 10 years—and only 10% of those affected aware of this shift—this workshop is both a wake-up call and a roadmap for action.

Participants will explore the future state of finance, identify the skills they’ll need to thrive in new roles, and create actionable plans to future-proof their careers and departments.

This workshop isn’t just about understanding change—it’s about equipping participants with the tools to lead it. Join us to ensure you and your team are ready to shape the future of finance.
