Guest: Helle Bank Jorgensen Does your board of directors have the slightest clue what to do with AI?   As AI creeps into your organization, your board has a fiduciary duty to determine its parameters in the workplace AND in the boardroom…such as figuring out how much information is relevant, and whether it’s trustworthy, misinformation, or just way more than you need. There are ethical considerations, too.   Fortunately, guest Helle Bank Jorgensen has tips to help. She’s the founder and CEO of Competent Boards, and routinely helps boardrooms improve. Here's what Helle and Maureen cover: Why it’s critical for AI to earn your trust as a leader; The very real financial dangers of acting on misinformation instead of objective (and trust-worthy) facts; and The equally real opportunities that await you beyond those risks!   Other episodes you'll enjoy: Stewarding the Future of the Planet: Views from the Boardroom with Helle Bank Jorgensen JEDI SPACE Principles for CEOs and Board Chairs with Valrie Grant & Christopher Washington Curing Corporate Short-Termism with Gregory Milano   For daily wisdom from our guests, be sure to follow us on LinkedIn.
