About

AI-CYA is written and taught by Jacob Pearson.

I was an Army combat medic sergeant, from 2001 to 2009, with two combat deployments. I trained 95% of a 100-person infantry company as Combat Lifesavers. Then I spent more than a decade in finance, including fund reporting, Board and regulatory reporting at a bank, and a year as CFO of a small company. Four times, my job was putting new software into a finance function without breaking the numbers. Workiva went from signed contract to full production in 1.5 months, and I trained the reporting staff on it. Today I build AI agents and automation by hand.

What I took from all of it: three things decide whether a person or a business wins. The skills of the people. How well they use their tools. And whether they lead or only manage.

If you lead a business and have a larger decision,

I also do management consulting for CEOs, Boards and PE firms.

Jacob Pearson provides management consulting and training on the operations of organizations: people, process, software and AI. He is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, CPA firm or law firm. Nothing on this site or in any proposal, deck, report, dashboard, newsletter or course is investment, legal, tax or accounting advice; an offer or solicitation of securities; a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security, fund interest or asset; a valuation or fairness opinion; or an audit, review or attest opinion. No fee is contingent on a transaction, a capital raise or a valuation; any variable fee is tied only to operating value measured under a written attribution rule. Where Jacob has an interest in a product or service he discusses, he says so in writing. Targets and measured results are not guarantees. Talk to your own counsel, CPA and licensed adviser about legal, tax, accounting and investment matters.
