Machine learning (ML) is changing virtually every aspect of our lives. Today ML algorithms accomplish tasks that until recently only expert humans could perform. As it relates to finance, this is the most exciting time to adopt a disruptive technology that will transform how everyone invests for generations.

It requires a grounding in all of the functions of an organisation, from product management to technology to sustainability.

Entertaining and shocking, these ancient anti-role models show how power inflames leaders' worst tendencies.
