SUMMARY:From Adoption to Impact: Driving Reporting Value with AI
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nMany business leaders aren’t asking whether to adopt AI anymore—they’re asking how to make it actually work. How do you move past the pilot? How do you get your data ready? How do you build team confidence and measure whether AI adoption is paying off?In this webinar\, Workiva and Deloitte get specific. Our speakers will walk through what AI implementation looks like in practice inside the office of the CFO and across functions—from identifying the right use cases and cleaning up upstream data\, to building early wins and scaling what’s working.  \n\n\n\nThis webinar goes beyond theoretical discussions around the possibilities of AI. You’ll hear real-world examples of teams applying AI to existing reporting workflows—from specific financial reporting and record-to-report use cases to considerations for global multinationals\, public\, and private organizations. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a conversation about the realities of leading an AI-empowered organization\, ranging from change management to ROI measurement.  \n\n\n\nAfter this webinar\, you will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nDevelop the business case for AI\, from defining success criteria upfront to identifying use cases to setting expectations for what early wins look like\n\n\n\nEvaluate your build vs. buy options\, between purpose-built AI functionality within your existing tech stack against custom-built solutions\n\n\n\nAssess whether your organization’s current AI governance framework is sufficient to manage risk at scale\n\n\n\n\nWorkiva offers one complimentary CPE credit for this webinar.ay. All attendees will receive access to the on-demand recording after the event.

SUMMARY:California Climate Compliance: A Practical Path to SB 253 Implementation
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nCalifornia’s climate disclosure requirements are no longer theoretical. With the August 1 emissions reporting deadline approaching for California’s Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act (SB 253)\, many organizations—particularly those without dedicated sustainability teams—are facing compressed timelines\, fragmented data\, and increasing pressure to deliver audit-ready disclosures. \n\n\n\nFor teams that have not yet implemented a solution\, the challenge is not just compliance—it’s setting a foundation that is credible\, defensible\, and achievable within the time remaining. \n\n\n\nThis session will provide a clear\, practical path forward. \n\n\n\nJoin Workiva for a discussion focused on how organizations can move from delayed preparation to a working SB 253 implementation in a matter of weeks—not months or years. We will walk through what actually needs to happen in year one\, how to approach implementation without requiring perfection\, and how to establish a foundation that can scale over time. \n\n\n\nYou’ll gain a realistic view of what a compressed implementation timeline looks like\, including how to define boundaries\, structure data collection\, and transform processes\, and prepare for assurance. The session will also include examples from organizations currently navigating SB 253 and highlight why they acted\, where they faced challenges\, and how they are progressing toward compliance. \n\n\n\nIf your organization still relies on spreadsheets\, unclear ownership\, or incomplete data\, this session will help you understand what to prioritize now to reduce reputational risk for non disclosure. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \n\n\n\nWho should attendFinance\, controllership\, compliance\, legal\, and internal audit leaders responsible for preparing their organization for California SB 253 emissions disclosure\, especially those with lean sustainability teams. \n\n\n\nThis session is designed for organizations that: \n\n\n\n\nHave not yet implemented a solution for SB 253\n\n\n\nAre working with limited internal resources and tight timelines\n\n\n\nNeed a practical\, defensible path to compliance\, quickly\n\n\n\n\nAfter completing this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\nRecognize common risks and challenges organizations face when starting late—and how to mitigate them to support audit-ready disclosures. \n\n\n\nIdentify the critical steps required to initiate an SB 253 implementation within a compressed timeline\, including key year-one priorities. \n\n\n\nExplain how a phased\, multi-year approach to climate disclosure enables organizations to establish a defensible foundation without requiring complete data maturity upfront. \n\n\n\nEvaluate the components of an effective compressed implementation plan\, including  boundary setting\, data collection and transformation\, methodology development\, and process documentation.

SUMMARY:The Accountability Gap: Aligning ownership\, risk\, and results in AI-driven finance
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nAs AI reshapes financial forecasting\, close\, controls\, and integrated sustainability reporting\, it’s increasingly important for finance and IT to work closely together.  \n\n\n\nIn reality\, CFOs and CIOs are currently accountable for different outcomes.  \n\n\n\nAccording to IDC\, CFOs remain accountable for economic integrity\, regulatory defensibility\, and institutional trust\, while CIOs are responsible for scalable\, secure\, and resilient technology enablement: which means that outcome accountability and platform responsibility can be misaligned.  \n\n\n\nTo adopt a responsible approach to AI that accelerates team performance\, it’s critical to establish joint ownership between the offices of the CFO and CIO. \n\n\n\nOn this webinar\, Heather Herbst\, Research Director\, CFO Buyer Insights at IDC\, Chelsea Hall\, Industry Principal for Financial Reporting at Workiva\, and Johna Morris\, Product Marketing Director at Workiva\, will explore the growing accountability gap in AI-driven finance and how leading companies are closing it.  \n\n\n\nAfter this webinar\, you will be able to:  \n\n\n\n\nIdentify common breakdown points in ownership and accountability within AI-enabled finance processes \n\n\n\nAssess how to embed assurance\, controls\, and governance requirements into system design prior to scaling AI-enabled capabilities\n\n\n\nApply a framework for aligning ownership\, risk\, and results in AI-driven finance initiatives\n\n\n\n\nWorkiva offers one complimentary CPE credit for this webinar.

SUMMARY:The New Era of GRC: Introducing The AI-Powered Workiva GRC Platform
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nWorkiva offers one CPE credit for attending this event.  \n\n\n\nToday’s audit and risk leaders are being asked to deliver real-time insight\, enterprise-wide assurance\, and confident decision support\, yet most GRC programs are still built on fragmented data\, manual workflows\, and point-in-time reporting. That operating model is no longer sustainable\, and incremental AI layered onto siloed systems won’t fix it. \n\n\n\nIn this launch event\, Workiva will introduce a new standard for modern GRC: an AI-powered platform purpose-built to connect risk\, controls\, audit\, and reporting in a single\, intelligent environment. The next generation of Workiva GRC enables organizations to replace fragmented oversight with continuous\, connected assurance—turning risk and compliance into a source of strategic insight. \n\n\n\nWorkiva leaders will outline what a modern GRC operating model requires\, how AI reshapes expectations for audit and risk teams\, and why traditional GRC approaches fall short. You’ll get a first look at the AI-powered Workiva GRC platform—including new capabilities across controls\, audit\, risk management\, and embedded AI experiences—designed to enhance human judgment and accelerate high-stakes decision-making. \n\n\n\nWho should attend \n\n\n\n\nAudit\, risk\, and compliance leaders who are ready to see what the future looks like and know that incremental fixes won’t be enough. If you are responsible for delivering trust\, transparency\, and insight in a complex organization\, this session is built for you.\n\n\n\n\nAfter completing this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\nRecognize the systemic limitations of legacy GRC frameworks\, including fragmented data and manual workflows\, and their impact on the organization’s ability to manage evolving risk. \n\n\n\nDescribe how a unified data foundation and modern platform architecture serve as the critical infrastructure for delivering traceable\, auditable\, and defensible AI-driven insights. \n\n\n\nEvaluate the impact of integrated AI-powered workflows—including automated control creation\, flowchart generation\, and evidence analysis—into standard GRC programs. \n\n\n\nAssess how embedded AI can enhance professional judgment while maintaining auditability\, transparency\, and defensibility in regulated environments.
