AI is everywhere in accounting right now, but real impact comes from how it is applied, not how often it is discussed. In this session, Laurel Grey from RSM will share how their technology consulting practice is helping businesses improve workflow automation and use AI alongside the right software to lift efficiency and productivity. Drawing on both internal experience and client engagements, she will outline how AI fits within a broader process and technology strategy rather than sitting in isolation. The focus is practical. How workflows are redesigned. How automation and AI work together. Where measurable productivity gains are being achieved today. This is a conversation about applying AI with intent, within well structured workflows, to solve real operational challenges.
