Why Your Finance Team Needs an AI Strategy, Now
Join us for this free webinar and learn how to build an AI-ready finance team. The finance function is evolving fast. Whether it's streamlining close processes or spotting anomalies before they become real problems, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a buzzword. It's a real capability that businesses are expecting finance leaders to adopt. And that expectation extends to the teams they lead. Yet there's one big challenge: most finance departments weren't built for this shift. Talent shortages are already stretching departments thin, and many current employees lack the tools—or the training—to capitalize on what AI has to offer. So how do you build a finance team that's not only prepared for AI but empowered by it? Find out by joining us for our free webinar, Why Your Finance Team Needs an AI Strategy, Now, powered by Oracle NetSuite and Entrepreneur. Dr. Jill Schiefelbein, AI strategist and host of the Humanize Automation podcast, will moderate a conversation with Rebeca Bichachi, CPA and Product Marketing Director for Oracle NetSuite. Together, they'll walk through six specific strategies to build a finance department that's truly future-ready. From reevaluating your hiring criteria to eliminating unfulfilling tasks with smart automation, this session goes beyond theory and offers practical, scalable action steps. Attendees of this webinar will learn: Why "intentional experimentation" is your best on-ramp to AI integration How to expand your talent pool by looking outside traditional finance roles Ways to reskill current team members—without overwhelming them Where to deploy AI tools to free up time for strategic, high-impact work How to spot (and reward) your early adopters and AI champions What today's "ideal candidate" for finance looks like—and why that definition is shifting fast Whether you're a CFO, controller, or finance leader at a growing business, this session will help you align your AI ambitions with your most valuable resource: your people. The Why Your Finance Team Needs an AI Strategy, Now webinar will take place live on Thursday August 28 at 12 p.m. ET | 9 a.m. PT.

Clearwater Properties Celebrates Grand Re-Opening of White Sulphur Springs Office
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, Mont., July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearwater Properties proudly celebrated the grand re-opening of its White Sulphur Springs office on Friday, June 27, 2025. The event, held from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., welcomed community members, clients, and guests for an evening of connection and celebration. Attendees enjoyed appetizers, refreshments, giveaways, and the opportunity to meet the newest member of the Clearwater team, Agent Cale Updegrave. Cale brings a passion for Montana living and a strong commitment to serving the local community. Company leadership was also on hand to share Clearwater's ongoing dedication to White Sulphur Springs and its mission to help clients stake their claim in Montana. The newly refreshed office reflects the brokerage's continued growth and investment in providing high-quality, personalized real estate service across the region. 'We're honored to be part of this community and excited about what lies ahead,' said Clearwater CEO, Shaun Michael Lewis. 'This beautiful valley isn't simply another market for us - It's where our founder, Kevin Wetherell, was born and raised, and where the seeds of what would become the largest Montana-born brokerage first took root. Clearwater is a brokerage born not in London, New York, California or Germany. It was born here, in Montana and that legacy drives the way in which we serve our communities. This office holds a unique place in our company's story. Aside from the founder's upbringing in White Sulphur, this was our second location which we established back in 1995, and it served this community faithfully for 28 years before we had to make the difficult decision to temporarily close in 2023. But White Sulphur Springs never left our hearts, just as it never leaves the hearts of those in the community.' Lewis continued 'Over the past three decades, Clearwater has grown from a local Montana dream into a company with over 35 office and agent locations across five states in the mountain west. We've been recognized as one of America's Best Brokerages by The Land Report, and we're proud to be the #1 Sports Afield Trophy Properties brokerage in the world. But through all that growth, we've never forgotten our roots - the Montana values of integrity, hard work, and treating neighbors like family. Those values were shaped right here in White Sulphur Springs, in this community that, perhaps more than any other, understands the true meaning of Montana life. As we reopen these doors, we are renewing our commitment to this community. To date, we've given back over $1.3million to non-profits across Montana and look forward to continuing that tradition in White Sulphur Springs.' Clearwater Montana Properties, founded in 1993, is Montana's largest real estate brokerage firm with a network of over 30 offices and agent locations across Montana, Idaho, North Dakota, Washington, and Wyoming. Clearwater focuses on providing quality customer service, superior market knowledge, and giving back to the communities we serve. Visit Clearwater at Sports Afield Trophy Properties Affiliation:Clearwater Montana Properties is the exclusive territory broker participant with Sports Afield in Montana, Idaho, North Dakota, Wyoming and Washington. Its affiliation with Sports Afield Trophy Properties® (SATP) has been one of the biggest game changers in real estate for Clearwater. Clearwater Montana Properties is proud to be the #1 Sports Afield Trophy Properties brokerage in the world in total sales volume and number of transactions. Since 1887, the iconic 'Sports Afield' name has been synonymous with outdoor recreation and conservation, which not only aligns with the brokerage's mission, but also greatly magnifies its marketing reach. Clearwater Giving Fund: The Clearwater Giving Fund is Clearwater Montana Properties' way of ensuring that every transaction gives back. Through this charitable program, a portion of each sale is directed to a local service group or charitable organization selected by the Agent. At the end of each calendar year, Clearwater presents donations to organizations within the communities where those transactions occurred. Serving as a positive force in the communities it serves is central to Clearwater's mission and values. To date, the company has donated more than $1.2 million through the program, helping to strengthen and uplift the very communities it calls home.
