Laura Ligouri joins The Great Battlefield podcast to talk about her career and founding Mindbridge, which works to apply psychological and neurobiological research to human rights and solve conflicts between groups.

As organizations generate larger and larger amounts of data, traditional accounting practices like audits are increasingly difficult to perform effectively without the help of technology like AI.  And while AI presents CPAs with the opportunity to expand skillsets and manage massive datasets, it also comes with significant risks. In this episode, David McGuffin speaks with professional accountant Rachel Kirkham ​​about how she navigates a path between the opportunities and risks of AI in her role as Vice President of Analytics and Data Science for the accounting tech firm MindBridge. She says a key risk is the potential for biases to creep into the ways data is collected and interpreted. Rachel tells David, “There are a bunch of different things that you have to think about and there are techniques to mitigate against biases but it's about being aware of them as a data scientist. An awareness that this is something that you actually need to explicitly consider and manage as a risk.” The narrow wedge between the promise and the perils of technology is what Laura and Brian Friedrich call the double-edged sword of technology for accountants. They wrote a paper exploring this issue in collaboration with CPA Canada, the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS), and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA). Brian tells David that balancing the risks and rewards of technology requires CPAs to bring their public interest mandate to the front of their professional practice, “That's what has to be held above all else…when things start to look like they're crossing the line, or if there's a risk of them crossing the line that you're able to stand back and ask the important questions about what's this tech really going to be doing? And does it seem appropriate for us to do that? Has there been enough testing of those sorts of things?” Key Moments: 4:31 Rachel Kirkham discusses the potential dangers of machine learning algorithms 5:42 Rachel describes steps that need to be taken to remove bias from algorithms 9:03 Rachel describes how AI can improve audits. 11:40 How the MindBridge algorithms were audited by University College London 14:03 Rachel speaks to how CPAs can balance the risks and opportunities of AI 16:00 Why the accounting designation came into play when designing and developing the Mindbridge AI 20:00 Brian Friedrich on the critical role CPAs play in managing the opportunities and risks of AI 21:38 Why CPAs need to keep their public interest mandate front and centre as these advanced tools evolve.

In today's episode, Allan and Lauren talk to Solon Angel, founder of MindBridge. For Solon, ideas are abundant, but the key is to write it down and let it settle. This process is how some of his biggest entrepreneurial ventures started. Solon shares his unique perspectives on value creation, trusting your data, and how a group of highly committed individuals, like his team at MindBridge, has the potential to change the world. We ask Solon the question we ask every guest: What does succeed with data mean to you?“If you can make data valuable again, if you can make data respected again, and not just enrich it but really make it part of the conversation so it doesn't just become an opinion-fest anymore, you will succeed. Look at companies that really curate but also bring back trust and orient people towards taking actions that are positive, removing biases, that's very powerful.”

Our internal world shapes how we experience the external world. It also affects the quality of relationships that we depend on in our personal and professional lives. With the right frame of mind, all things good and bad can be turned in to opportunities. NLP, or neurolinguistic programming, is a science that studies patterns in human behaviour associated with success. A certified NLP coach can show us how to identify the patterns that tend to run in our minds that have a direct impact on our performance in the real world. Marilou Seavey is a speaker and NLP trainer. She and her husband run MindBridge, an extremely successful business that trains professionals and has more than 35 years of experience helping professionals become better leaders and find more success.     Expert action steps: Set your outcomes daily. An outcome is about what's possible, what you want, and how you can get it. At the start of your day, imagine getting back in to bed full of gratitude for having a successful day. List your accomplishments and imagine how easily they came together. Be flexible, shift your perspective and consider things from other people's view points. Observation. Being able to separate fact from fiction. Take time to listen to people and confirm their meaning or the actual situation.

We all know that everyone thinks differently, but did you know that male and female brains are actually wired differently from a neurological perspective? That’s why men and women think differently and it can have very significant impacts on how we relate to one another in the workplace. Kate Lanz joins us on this episode to dive into the science behind our gendered brains, and how we can tap into that to drive innovation. Kate Lanz is the founder and CEO of Mindbridge, a UK-based global leadership company specializing in the power of modern neuroscience and releasing latent brain potential. She is also a trained neuropsychologist who works as a leadership coach and organizational psychologist. Her new book, All the Brains in the Business: The Engendered Brain in the 21st Century Organisation, dives into brain gender difference and how it impacts the workplace. What are the differences between female and male brains from a science perspective and how does that show up at work? Kate explains how our brains vary in terms of neural connectivity, hormone levels, and stress responses, and this can really translate to different working styles in a team. Figuring out what kind of brains you have on your team, and how to leverage them can give leaders the edge on getting teams to work together better, in brain-friendly ways.

• Why managers need to recognize brain sex • The “4 C's” a manager can implement today • “You can't ignore gender” (Total recorded time is 14:41) In these days of pandemic, every business needs to get the most out of its greatest asset: it's employees. But in many businesses, half or more of that potential is going unused or is mis-used. That's because women are being asked to think like certain types of men, to compete like men, solve problems like men, and communicate like men -- even though their brains are fundamentally and structurally different, says neuropsychologist and corporate coach Kate Lanz, founder and CEO of Mindbridge, a UK-based global leadership company. “You can't ignore gender,” says Ms. Lanz. “There are differences between men's and women's brains that play out in the workplace. Understanding brain sex difference is actually a ‘secret sauce' of performance.” Kate Lanz delves into the differences and what managers should do to tap this often-unrecognized asset in this CVBT Audio Interview Podcast (via Skype).

My guest today is Samantha Bowling, who's an Audit Partner at the accounting firm of Garbelman Winslow in Maryland and the current Chair of the Executive Board of the Maryland Association of CPAs. This episode is focused on public accounting, but it also has great implications to business and industry accounting professionals. So, I encourage anyone in accounting – or just interested in how AI is going to change the nature of work – to listen to the interview and decide how these technologies might affect your organization. Now, in March of 2016, artificial intelligence was introduced to the accounting profession when IBM and KPMG signed an agreement to bring Watson into KPMG's audit practice. At the time (and still, really), many of the small- to middle-sized firms speculated that this technology was too expensive for their practices. Samantha, however, saw an opportunity. She felt that if the larger firms had this advantage, how long would it be until they started taking clients? She turned that question into action, and 18 months after IBM and KPMG's announcement, Samantha was able to bring artificial intelligence into her audit practice at an affordable price. In fact, Samantha was awarded the Innovative Practitioner Award 2018 from CPA.com for her efforts – and it was well deserved! Now, if you're still a little skeptical or just curious, then start listening or keep reading and you'll learn how she did it. Small Firm, Big Technology For context, Samantha’s firm only has about 15 employees, depending on the time of year. They do mostly everything that small firms do, except for government contracting, and she happens to be the audit partner at this firm. So when Samantha heard about KPMG introducing AI into their audit practice three years ago, she thought she was probably going to lose a lot of revenue if the large firms have Watson and her firm doesn’t have anything. “I'm not going to be able to do auditing anymore,” Samantha though. “[But] I really don't like tax. So, I have to find a solution." Samantha started by talking to her software providers, asking how they were implementing AI into her platform... and they said they weren't. They were only going to look into AI for the large firm platforms. She was a little discouraged, but she didn’t stop searching. Instead, she did what most of us do when we have a question: she Googled it. She just happened to come across a company called MindBridge, a Canadian startup company that was willing to work with her and let her try it out. Still, she was skeptical. She thought she can't afford the software, it’s probably not going to do what it says it's going to do; was she setting herself up for disappointment?

Who Says Accountants Are Boring? Well, basically everyone. But if you live in Canada, you’ve probably seen those TV ads that are trying their very best to convince us all otherwise.  To be fair, in an increasingly complex world, having skills with money, data, fraud, and regulation is probably a good way to set yourself up with a job for life, and that in itself probably sounds pretty exciting to a lot of people. And now, thanks to applied AI technology, there’s some more good news on the horizon. Surely, one of the most tedious aspects of accountancy has always been the much maligned audit. Trolling though mountains of ledgers and books to spot mistakes, both deliberate and accidental, while business folks look on in dread is a tough sell for anyone. So it was inevitable that someone would come along an apply machine learning to this repetitive, data-heavy process, and in Canada, that person is Eli Fahti, the CEO of Ottawa’s MindBridge AI. A lifelong serial entrepreneur with an admirable track record of innovation, exits, and mentoring, Eli is a true gem of Canada’s tech sector. Tune in to this episode to learn how Eli and this Ottawa company is leading Canada's charge into the multi-billion dollar Global accountancy and auditing tech sector. What You’ll Hear Eli's startup journey which includes starting MindBridge with just a single employee and a good hunch. Why the accountancy industry has become a diamond, but needs to return to being a triangle. The numbers behind the incredible opportunity that Canadian women represent for out tech industry. The forces that make growing a startup in Canada so challenging. The Montreal Declaration and what it means to build an ethical AI company in Canada.

Artificial intelligence is one of those technologies that we’ve been talking about for years as a possible disrupter for our profession, as a possible job destroyer, and as a possible opportunity generator. Well, you can officially take the word “possible” out of all of those phrases – A.I. is here, and it’s delivering as advertised. And our guest Samantha Bowling, CPA, CGMA, can attest to that. Samantha is a partner with Garbelman Winslow, where she has put an A.I.-based audit solution to work that’s given the firm a huge competitive advantage, and her story is a perfect illustration of just how fast technology is advancing these days.

AI provides Foresights - The Holy Grail in AI Companies! Eli Fathi is the Co-founder & CEO of his seventh start-up, MindBridge Analytics Inc. He has been recognized with numerous awards including the Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance, Startup Canada 2016 Senior Entrepreneur Award for Canada and Civic Entrepreneurship, you name it he’s got it. Eli has also been featured in publications such as Huffington Post, Globe and Mail and the Financial Post. He is also active in his community and has provided about half a Billion dollars in job creation!   Episode Overview:   Is big data a problem? Yes, BIG data is a problem but it is also a blessing for AI because big data gives you information that you can mine and provide results. In the machine and artificial intelligence, we cannot detect intent. Error plus intent is fraud. So, fraud is really left in the course to decide the intent but we definitely can detect errors and irregularities in the data.   In this episode, Eli talks about the levels of how MindBridge AI works in regards to hindsights, insights and foresights (the holy grail in the AI companies) and how MindBridge applies it on a near real-time basis. He also tackled on the issue about the damage caused by major frauds and how the 80-20 rule takes place.   Listen to this episode to learn more about how artificial intelligence helps in securing your financial data with the help of MindBridge Ai. Plus, get the awesome tips that Eli shared with us today!   What you’ll learn in this episode:   One of the most important things of small company is FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS. One of the most attractive markets from their perspective is the external audit market. The CPA world has been using the same processes for the last hundred years and has not been disrupted to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the audit process.   They are addressing the internal and external audit market, with Ai Auditor, their extensible AI platform that can also be used for the financial market. Each year, the world loses $3 Trillion dollars due to errors and frauds that are going unnoticed. This is the market that MindBridge is addressing. By using artificial intelligence, MindBridge is increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of the audit process. By reviewing the data (trees), we can ascertain the overall high-level aspects of the company (forest). “The relationship between the trees in the forest; Sometimes when you look at the forest, you don't see the trees in the forest and vise versa” but the interesting thing is that with artificial intelligence is that by looking at the trees, you can tell what’s going on in the forest.   Tips he shared:   You have to build your own credibility Don’t look for a manager but look for a leader Do good; make a difference Ask for forgiveness not permission Don't try to micromanage Don’t criticize but rather encourage Empower people to take action and be solution oriented Be part of a team Don't compare yourself against others Never stop learning Think out of the box Challenge the status quo With every customer meeting, 10 minutes before the end of the meeting always ask the question “what is the next step?” Always ask for the order and make sure that when you get the answer, stop talking.
