HARRISON, N.Y. —

This event took place on Sunday, October 4, 2026.
Sunday, October 4, 2026 · 1:00 PM · Book Launch Celebration · Harrison, NY · Harrison Meadows Country Club
Invictus Global Media will celebrate the release of Building the Strategic Finance Operating Model: The CFO’s Blueprint for Value Creation in the Age of AI, the new book by Donald B. Rogers, CPA, MA, on Sunday, October 4, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. at Harrison Meadows Country Club, 123 North Street, Harrison, New York.
The invitation-only event will bring together finance, transformation, business, and community leaders to mark the publication and explore the forces reshaping the finance profession.
Mark Jaffe, President & CEO of the Greater New York Chamber of Commerce, will deliver the keynote address.
The program will examine the expanding role of the CFO, the impact of artificial intelligence on organizations and the workforce, and the leadership responsibility to translate technological innovation into measurable, sustainable enterprise value.
At the center of Rogers’ book is a defining thesis: the operating model has become the constraint. Artificial intelligence, automation, and advanced analytics cannot repair structures, processes, governance, data, and capabilities designed for a different era. Without the right foundation, technology can accelerate inefficiency, amplify complexity, and automate dysfunction.
The book introduces the Strategic Finance Operating Model™ (SFOM), an integrated framework that provides leaders with a practical roadmap for assessing the current state, designing the future-state finance function, strengthening AI readiness and governance, building organizational capabilities, and realizing transformation benefits.
“The organizations that lead in the Age of AI will not simply deploy better technology. They will redesign the operating model that enables it,” said Rogers. “AI provides extraordinary potential, but lasting value depends on the foundation beneath it: trusted data, disciplined processes, strong governance, activated talent, and accountable human judgment.”
Drawing on more than twenty-five years of experience advising C-suite executives, Rogers also addresses the human dimension of transformation.
The book emphasizes talent activation, trust, change leadership, responsible AI governance, and Human-in-the-Loop decision-making, with people retaining responsibility for context, ethics, judgment, accountability, and enterprise action.
