Boards are under pressure to oversee digital, AI, and cyber risk with confidence. This playbook offers a practical blueprint and toolkit to help directors upgrade board composition, structures, and oversight to become truly tech-savvy.
Leaders keep asking, “Can the model do it?” The better question is, “Can we govern it?” Durable organizations pair principled dissent with grounded realism and give both a single vantage point—a watchtower—to see weak signals early and act in time.
In this board-level study, we explore why smaller, task-specific AI models often outperform massive frontier models. The piece examines how accuracy, latency, cost and risk interact, and provides decision frameworks and metrics for executives. Restraint brings cost, speed and reliability advantages.
Boards now face an AI dilemma: how to balance cost efficiency, safety, and performance at planet scale. This whitepaper shows how trust can be made auditable through measurable SLOs, global standards, and case lessons—turning governance from compliance into competitive advantage.
AI governance must move beyond lofty principles. This playbook shows how to operationalize trust through ISO standards, NIST frameworks, concrete metrics, auditable artefacts, and clear escalation ladders—turning compliance into competitive advantage in the AI-driven economy.
