Overview

Why this programme

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how organisations make decisions, manage risk, allocate resources and create value. For boards, the challenge is no longer simply understanding what AI is; it is understanding how to govern it in an environment where information is complex, decisions are increasingly data-driven, and the pace of technological change outstrips traditional governance frameworks.

This masterclass moves beyond technical explanations of AI to focus on the boardroom implications: how to interrogate AI-related information in the board pack, identify emerging risks and opportunities, challenge assumptions, assess accountability, and ask the questions that matter before approving significant AI-driven decisions.

The objective is not to turn directors into AI specialists. It is to develop AI-literate boards capable of asking better questions, challenging confidently and governing responsibly - working throughout from one guiding principle: AI should strengthen board judgement, not substitute for it.

Programme

  1. 01

    Day One - Building AI Governance Literacy

    • Governing in a non-linear world: why AI-driven disruption raises the bar for board judgement rather than lowering it
    • What directors need to know about AI: capability and limitation, hallucination risk, bias and data provenance
    • From summarisation to interrogation: the Six Governance Lenses and the prompt design behind them
    • The five (plus one) fundamental questions, applied to an anonymised board pack extract
  2. 02

    Day Two - Applying the BOARD-AI Framework

    • The BOARD-AI framework letter by letter, with worked examples on sample pack material
    • Governance boundaries: confidentiality, fiduciary duty, information classification and the organisational AI-use policy
    • Full board-pack simulation in syndicate groups within an approved AI sandbox
    • Nasdaq Boardvantage board portal demonstration
    • Personal action plan: each director's own Top 10 Board Questions and an AI-governance readiness checklist
