AI, Automation, and Smarter Accounting for Growth-Oriented Businesses

A Growth Playbook for CEOs

OCT 28, 2026 · 11:30 AM ETVirtual
Accounting Department CEO Coaching International Learning Workshop

Event summary

Most growing companies don’t struggle because they lack financial statements. They struggle because finance arrives too late, buried in manual work, with too little insight to act on.

If your finance function feels like a bottleneck rather than a driver of growth, join CEO Coaching International and AccountingDepartment.com on Wednesday, October 28, at 11:30am ET/8:30am PT.

Nancy Gordon and Jennie Hoffman will unpack the finance pain points they see over and over in growth-stage companies, from constant controller turnover to receivables quietly aging out of control. Then they’ll walk through what a modern, AI-enabled finance function actually looks like, including a live look at a real-time KPI dashboard.

Who should attend

Built for CEOs and owners of companies with roughly $5M–$50M in revenue.

Three takeaways

  1. Know what you’re actually paying for. Learn the real difference between a bookkeeper, a controller, and a CFO, and why mislabeling these roles quietly costs you money, talent, and trust.
  2. Stop paying skilled people to do unskilled work. See where automation and AI can eliminate manual data entry, freeing your team for analysis and decision-making.
  3. Turn reporting into a growth tool. Move beyond static monthly statements toward real-time visibility into cash runway, margin, and risk.

The session is live and interactive, with real client case studies, self-diagnosis questions, and open Q&A. Come ready with your own numbers. You may just see your business in the case studies.
