If you’re a CFO, now is the time to take a seat and see a glimpse into the future. It comes courtesy of Cory McNeley, Managing Director at UHY Consulting, which exists to strengthen and transform the office of the Chief Financial Officer.
It does so by providing advice and insight on everything from digital strategy – including digital transformation – and the biggest technological factors shaping our world. And Cory isn’t merely thinking about AI, pointing out that data governance, for instance, is often overlooked.
“Advanced technologies rely heavily on high-quality data to function effectively,” he said. “Without strict data governance, the integrity of data may be compromised, resulting in flawed AI outputs and unreliable system performance.”

With expertise that spans manufacturing, defence, aerospace, retail and government, it should be no surprise that he has an informed opinion to share on almost every sector that technology touches. Which is to say, everything!
