How HPE’s CFO used AI to transform the 100-slide Monday meeting her team spent all week preparing for

At Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), the finance function is becoming a proving ground for enterprise AI.
 
The finance organization at HPE (No. 143 on the Fortune 500) used to revolve around a weekly ritual: a 90-minute Monday operational performance review fueled by more than 100 PowerPoint pages and hundreds of hours of manual preparation across the business.

That call was the “heartbeat of the company,” and finance was the “back engine” orchestrating every data point, Marie Myers, EVP and CFO of HPE, told Fortune.
