- AI as a Core Driver: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly a central factor in enterprise strategy, risk management, and long-term value creation.
- Inconsistent Board Engagement: Despite its importance, only 26% of corporate boards consistently discuss AI at every meeting according to Protiviti and BoardProspects research.
- Strong Correlation with ROI: Organizations with regular board-level discussions about AI are significantly more likely to achieve higher returns on investment (ROI).
- Governance Gaps Identified: High-ROI organizations demonstrate stronger confidence and strategy in AI integration, ethical deployment, and strategic use compared to low-ROI organizations.
- Strategic Necessity of Board Oversight: As AI transitions from experimentation to widespread use, board oversight of AI becomes more critical and varies depending on factors like board composition and industry dynamics.
- Resources Available: A comprehensive report “The Board’s AI Moment” and a global webinar on the survey findings are available to provide deeper insights and further discussion on the topic.
