AI Board Governance Compass in Practice

​AI is now a core board responsibility. 

​As AI reshapes strategy, risk, and growth, boards are being asked to oversee technologies that move faster than traditional governance models. Many directors are expected to guide AI decisions without a clear, practical framework.

​This WOMEN x AI executive and board-level session is a deep dive into the AI Board Governance Compass, a framework designed specifically for directors navigating AI in the boardroom.

​This session is designed for executives, board members, and advisors who want practical governance tools, not theory. The goal is clarity, judgment, and better decisions when the stakes are high.

It's designed for current and aspiring board directors, senior executives, and governance-focused leaders.

The evening begins with a conversation on Rebooting Tech Culture in the boardroom with author and technology leader Telle Whitney, followed by a governance-focused dialogue with experienced directors navigating AI oversight in practice.
