Build-With-Me
The workflow ran on the course data and broke on yours. Your screen, your data, 1 on 1, until it holds.
Why it stalls
That is not one problem. It is 4, and they arrive looking like one.
Getting the AI to actually produce the thing, and getting the dashboard to sit somewhere people will look at it.
Pulling from systems that disagree, and cleaning them so the join is honest rather than just tidy.
Which number belongs there, how it is built, and what it is supposed to tell whoever reads it.
Which steps the AI takes, in what order, what gets checked, and who signs off. One good prompt is not a workflow.
Your IT team owns the first. Your analyst owns the second. Your accountant owns the third. Nobody owns the fourth, or the seams between them, and that is where it breaks.
Why a course does not finish the job
A good course gives you the concepts and shows a dashboard being built. Then it meets your own data and breaks. Nobody checks whether each step was done right on your numbers. That is the check you are buying here.
Five moments when the format is the problem, not the teaching.
A board meeting, a month-end, a project due. It gets compressed into one session on the actual work.
The training made sense. Assembling it on real data is where it stalls. That is the usual reason people quit, and one session clears it.
Courses teach on textbook data. Here the live forecast the boss is waiting for comes to the session, or the close that will not reconcile.
General AI finance training goes shallow here. This is the part I have done for twenty years, at Fortune 500 scale.
One to one, and the screen stays yours. The recording goes to you and to nobody else, and your figures are never used as an example anywhere.
Two ways in
Both are coached: you hold the pen, I guide it live. Open the one that fits for price, scope and how it runs.
Coached: one session
The forecast that will not reconcile, the output nobody can defend, the workflow that ran on the course data and broke on yours. You share your screen and build, I ask the questions that stop it breaking later, and you leave with it working and the reason it broke.
What to bring
How it runs
I do not read files beforehand, write a review, or build it for you. A written look at the numbers is a Focused Diagnostic. If the output is wrong because the data underneath it is wrong, it shows early and the session turns to the data.
Booked and paid in one step. Reschedule free up to 24 hours before.
Coached: the full build, 4 sessions
One workflow, built on your data, tested against numbers you already trust, and handed over with the summary your board or your CFO can read. You keep it running afterwards, because your hands built it.
The four weeks, in this order
Where it ends
How it is bought
Between sessions you build. There is no support channel between sessions, which is what keeps the price where it is.
Which one fits? The free 30-minute review settles it.
Who is on the other side
I have sat in the CFO chair, and at 3M I ran inventory operations that cut non-moving inventory from 8.5% to 5% while holding a 100% fill rate through the semiconductor shortage. I build production AI workflows for closing, variance and inventory analysis.
So a session is not a prompting lesson. It is a working review of what you are building, by someone who knows what a controller, an auditor and a board will each do to it.
For a team, or a room
The same method taught to several people at once: a finance team building its first AI workflow, a leadership group, a conference. Hands on, on real-shaped data, with something working at the end.
What gets built in these sessions
21 drivers and the logic between them, no dataset behind it. Capacity authorised in spring for a summer nobody can predict, with every case already run.

Read itIn this AI era, where many people are talking about what AI tools can do, Sharon is actively building with them ... diagnostic frameworks that turn raw inventory data into answers a CFO can actually defend. Her systems reflect real financial judgment, not just technical skill.
She doesn't critique outputs, she diagnoses the system behind them: backtesting, train/test splits, auditability. That's the rigor senior finance professionals actually need.
