  • A must for any Board or C-Suite member

    Usually companies pay for great Board education like this. The hosts do a great job of curating a diverse group of experienced guests and elucidating best practices and nuts and bolts of how a Board can best be used. If you are a Board member of any organization of any size and developmental phase and/or in the C-suite, especially a founder or CEO, this podcast should be mandatory. This is a hard topic and the hosts and guest give great guidance to make things easier.

92. AI vs. Humans in the Boardroom: Whom Do You Trust, with Babs Ryan.
Q: What led you to write the article and why in particular did you position the article to advocate for AI?
Babs explains the motivation came from observing the trajectory of AI in governance and the potential for AI to augment board decision-making, while emphasizing careful, staged adoption and governance to avoid over-reliance on technology. The article argues for considering AI on boards as a strategic lever, not a toy, and to examine clear metrics and ROI implications.
