Extraordinary Women on Boards (EWOB) Members came out in force on Monday for the RANE (Risk Assistance Network + Exchange) x Nasdaq Risk Summit, "Horizon Scanning: Ensuring Your Board Takes a Forward-Looking View of Risk". With such a powerful line-up, the takeaways were abundant. Here are 3 major themes that stood out... ⚠ In today’s #cyberrisk environment and with the impact of #AI evolving at such a rapid pace, #riskmanagement must be a team sport. #Boards can no longer point to the #CISO to have all the answers or shoulder the responsibility alone. 🔎 Even if your #Board has a designated Tech expert, every board member should become Tech + AI literate to ensure the collective group is fluent enough to ask smart questions and understand the impact of decisions made. “The greatest risk in adopting and understanding emerging technologies is NOT to adopt and understand emerging technologies.” 📣 Make sure your ethics rules are coherent vs. a patchwork of additions and fixes put in place to address specific mistakes made along the way. Big shout out to #EWOB Member Karen Snow of Nasdaq, EWOB Member panelists, Homaira Akbari, Cari Robinson and Maria Simona Jelescu and to Friends of Extraordinary Women on Boards (EWOB) including David N. Lawrence, Greg Radner and Dina Powell for sharing your risk wisdom and making us all even smarter. #riskmanagement #womendirectors #ewob #boardroomexcellence #boards #boarddirectors #extraordinarywomenonboards #womenonboards
