Is this for you?

Who it is for

Supervisory and non-executive boards that want the complete picture without a three-day program, for example before a strategy day or a major AI investment. It gives new and experienced directors one shared starting point.

Group size

5 to 12 directors. The CEO and CFO can join selected parts.

Prior knowledge

None required. Boards that already completed AI risks & opportunities or AI governance framework can build on it.

Core objectives

  1. 01Understand where AI creates risk and opportunity for the company
  2. 02Set up how the board oversees AI: roles, reporting and evidence
  3. 03Learn to challenge and fund an AI strategy in stages
  4. 04Agree the board's AI agenda for the year ahead
Why it matters

Boards that take AI seriously need three things: a shared understanding of what AI means for the company, a clear way to oversee it, and the ability to judge management's strategy.

Covering them together saves time and makes the parts reinforce each other.

How it works

BeforeOne pre-read and interviews
  1. 01 AI risks and opportunities
  2. 02 The AI governance framework
  3. 03 Overseeing AI strategy
  4. 04 The board's AI agenda and a 90-day plan

The program moves through three parts: AI risks and opportunities, the AI governance framework, and overseeing AI strategy. It closes with a session on the board's own AI agenda and a 90-day plan. The two days can run back to back or as two dates within four weeks. Preparation is combined in one pre-read and interviews with the CEO, the CFO and the chair.

Deliverables

  • A briefing memo and ten questions for management
  • A one-page AI governance framework and a quarterly report template
  • A review checklist, a decision calendar and a dashboard specification
  • A 12-month board AI agenda and a 90-day plan
