During the day, you will reflect on:
- The fit & proper SOE board member: What competencies, behaviours and responsibilities are expected from board members in state-owned enterprises? How do public responsibility, accountability and long-term value creation shape the board role?
- AI and the board member: understanding the legal framework: What should board members know about AI from a legal perspective? Is there a coherent legal framework governing AI, and are the expectations different for state-owned enterprises than for private companies?
- Cybersecurity oversight: That are the key cybersecurity risks facing organisations today, and what role should the board play in overseeing and managing these risks?
- Building AI literacy in the boardroom: How AI-literate is your board? What level of understanding is required to effectively challenge, oversee and support management in an increasingly digital environment?
- AI governance and decision-making: How is AI governed within the organisation? What opportunities and risks arise when AI is used to support decision-making, and what role should the board play in this discussion?
- Defining the organisation's AI stance: What strategic position should the organisation take regarding AI? How can the board contribute to defining a clear and responsible approach to AI adoption and innovation?
