– Discussion, Analysis, and Decision-Making: The role of AI in facilitating more precise and relevant strategic discussions through scenario and risk analysis.
Highlights from the Research:
– The study identifies significant themes related to the use of generative AI by board members: knowledge challenges, information management, and strategic decision-making.
– The importance of proactive information seeking and AI’s ability to enhance this process.
– How generative AI can complement board members’ expertise by offering new perspectives and improving predictive analysis capabilities.
