I'm a Founding Partner at Flow Strategy Consulting and Academic Director of AI-Powered Finance at IE Business School. My career runs across capital markets, venture building, and organizational consulting. The teaching came out of that work.
At Robert W. Baird I was a Senior Financial Consultant in private wealth management and corporate investment consulting, on the investment committee for 4 private and 40+ corporate portfolios, before moving into innovation and advisory work. Since then I've built and led programs in six countries, advised startups through growth and fundraising, and helped organizations from Fortune 500 firms to government ministries put AI to work, from strategy through implementation.
The through line is decision-making under pressure. It looks the same in a boardroom as it does in a lecture hall.
Four years learning markets. Four years running $1.6B at Baird. One year to rethink it. Five years building, advising, and teaching what came out of that. Now AI in finance, in New York. The question never changed: what drives behavior and decisions.

"Arseniy was my instructor during the Finance & Accounting module at ThePowerMBA and I can't recommend him enough. He managed to put all the content in a structured, thorough and in-depth package — not less than 70 F&A lessons presented in an easy, understandable, and extremely practical way. By far the best finance course I've ever had."
Marta Morillo Rodríguez
