AI for Board Members: Understanding AI for Better Leadership and Decision-Making 🔗

Introduction

Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming part of everyday work, business and public life. However, many Board Members may not have had the opportunity to explore AI directly or understand how tools such as generative AI are changing the way organisations communicate, analyse information, solve problems and improve productivity. Board Members do not need to become technical specialists, but they should be sufficiently familiar with AI to understand its potential, recognise its limitations and participate confidently in boardroom discussions involving AI. This two-day executive programme provides a practical, comfortable and non-technical introduction to AI for Board Members. The programme starts from the fundamentals and uses familiar workplace examples, guided demonstrations and simple hands-on activities. The emphasis is on awareness, confidence and practical understanding rather than programming, technical architecture or complex AI governance frameworks.
