Revolutionizing Data-Informed Decision Making in Defense Financial Management
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM Wed
Michael Greenberg brings decades of operational and financial leadership experience to modernizing resource decision-making across the Army and defense enterprise. He works with senior officials and financial leaders to strengthen how high-stakes resourcing decisions are made—bringing structure, transparency, and analytical rigor to processes often constrained by spreadsheets, compressed timelines, and competing priorities.
He partners with Department of Defense organizations to improve prioritization, design structured decision frameworks, and enhance transparency across Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE). His focus is practical: aligning strategy, data, and stakeholder input into repeatable processes that withstand scrutiny.
A retired U.S. Army Colonel with 28 years of service, Michael’s culminating assignment was Deputy Chief Financial Officer for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He previously commanded U.S. Army Garrison Fort Belvoir, one of the Army’s most complex installations, and has led and advised organizations at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels, managing large resource portfolios and guiding senior leaders through consequential tradeoffs.
Grounded in governance, risk management, and execution-year realities, Michael helps organizations increase rigor without slowing execution—moving beyond spreadsheet-driven processes toward disciplined, defensible prioritization.
He is a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and holds advanced degrees from Syracuse University and the Eisenhower School at the National Defense University. He is a Certified Defense Financial Manager with Acquisition Specialty (CDFM-A).
