About this episode
In this episode of Planning Aces, CFO Kevin Rubin of Zscaler, CFO Bruce Schuman of Universal Technical Institute, and CFO Razzak Jallow of FloQast share how disciplined FP&A leadership is shaping AI adoption. Rubin frames AI as a capital allocation exercise governed centrally to prevent tool sprawl. Schuman stresses foundational readiness—data governance, ERP consolidation, and process redesign—before deploying AI-driven forecasting. Jallow cautions against fragmented “spaghetti AI,” advocating for platform coherence and skill development. Together, they reveal that AI success in FP&A depends less on speed and more on governance, architecture, and trust in the planning process.
