"This change is people first, then technology, and not the other way around".
We're focusing on Robotics and Process-Automation this month, and our guest is just the man to outline how Human Intelligence should accompany RPA to transform a business at scale. Chris Argent talks to AICPA & CIMA's Kyle Hannan about the challenges faced by high performers. Chris will be a speaker at our forthcoming "Finance Transformation" conference in London and offers a deep and valuable experience of change in the profession.
