Episode notes

In this episode of CFO Weekly, Hari Sankar, Senior Vice President of Applications Development at Oracle, joins Megan Weis to explore how AI, automation, and cloud technology are fundamentally transforming the finance function. Hari brings over thirty years of experience driving enterprise transformation and is at the forefront of integrating AI into finance functions, having led Oracle’s journey with AI-powered finance tools. With a career shaped by a pivotal insight from an MBA classmate over dinner, that finance had a substantial unmet need for analytics and planning software, Hari has spent fifteen years championing the cause of CFOs burdened by manual processes and disconnected systems. Now at Oracle, he oversees AI-powered solutions embedded directly into core finance platforms, helping organizations move from reactive scorekeeping to predictive, agentic operations.
