A peer-led discussion on what most often decides whether finance transformation succeeds: change management. Levare CFO Daniil Shapirovskiy shares how the organisation moved regional finance teams onto a single, consistent way of working and secured lasting adoption. The conversation then looks ahead to what that foundation unlocks: governed, explainable Finance AI - and agents that let finance teams question data in natural language and act on answers they can trust.
Levare manages consolidation and cash flow across operations in the US, Mexico and the Middle East on OneStream - a single, unified platform that replaced a patchwork of regional processes. But the real story goes beyond the technology to the change behind it: how do you bring regional finance teams, each with their own established processes and ways of working, onto one system, and make that change stick?
For many finance leaders, standardising across regions is as much a people challenge as a technology one. Local ownership, familiar spreadsheets and different reporting practices can make a consistent way of working hard to introduce, even when the case for change is clear.
Financial controllers in every region now work in OneStream to submit their data and access their own reporting, on one trusted source of the numbers. Together we will explore what it takes to build trust in a new system, secure buy-in from the board through to regional teams, and turn implementation into lasting behavioural change.
Levare’s vision for AI and agents: enabling the CFO and regional controllers to interrogate their data directly and ask questions in natural language - spending less time chasing information, and more time acting on answers they can trust and defend.
Why standardising across regions matters, what it unlocks when every team works more directly from the same trusted platform, and the practical moves that get you there, from building the case for change to aligning processes and increasing engagement and adoption across regions.
The people side of transformation: building trust, creating regional ownership and getting controllers to actively use the system to submit data and access their own reporting, rather than treating it as a centrally imposed initiative.
How Levare is looking to extend its progress by enabling finance leaders and controllers to interrogate their data more directly, reducing the need to chase teams for answers.
