Govern AI or Be Governed By It: What Every Board Director Needs to Know Now

AI is reshaping every dimension of corporate governance, from how risks are identified to how valuations are won or lost. But most boards are navigating without a map. 
 
Join Corporate Board Member Network for a conversation with Malcolm Frank, a seasoned board director, former president of Cognizant, and CEO of TalentGenius. He’ll  share a practical, no-nonsense framework for governing AI the right way. Whether you're worried about rogue usage inside your company or falling behind on competitive intelligence, this session will offer you the clarity boards need now.

Discussion Topics Will Include:

• AI in the boardroom: right vs. wrong: How directors should think about AI adoption inside the enterprise, and the real governance risks of rogue usage, hallucinations, and legal discoverability
• From liability to leadership: Why "AI paranoia" stalls boards, and what confident, proactive oversight actually looks like
• Tracking AI's impact on your market: How to monitor competitive moves, best practices, and AI-driven valuation shifts to fulfill your fiduciary duty to shareholders
• AI as a board-level risk category: Why AI risk now belongs alongside cybersecurity and regulatory compliance, and how to structure oversight accordingly
• Frameworks that work: A tour of leading AI risk management frameworks and how boards can evaluate and adopt them without getting lost in the technical weeds
• What great AI governance looks like: Concrete steps directors can take today to govern AI with confidence, not fear.
