Governance Perspectives:

Addressing Today and Tomorrow 
 
   

Donna Hamlin, Ph.D., hhBoardwise,

 

 

Governance Today

 

 Our governance and board work across the globe keeps us busy. We work on two levels, as all boards today must address the current and the future challenges. 

  • Today: We help organizations to create best practices for high-performing boards to address current challenges, such as constantly required compliance changes, expanding duties in new areas such as AI and risk management and governance philosophy differences across countries. 
 
  • Tomorrow: As futurists, we work to evaluate scenarios and design wise solutions that create agency for boards to prepare for success. 
Focus for Today and Tomorrow
 
From our team perspective, the key areas to address are:
 
The Geopolitical Agenda for Boards
 
Working with boards, we advocate for broadening the traditional geopolitical perspective to include ECO-GEO politics. To set a strategic agenda while rapid changes in global ecosystems, we need a more comprehensive lens that reveals new opportunities and needs to create solid governance frameworks to protect eco-sensitive systems while also ensuring safeguards and protective measures.
 
Stay Ahead of the Curve with DEI and ESG Standards
 
As regulations shift and diverge globally, stay vigilant about legislative changes. It is not just for compliance. It's about minimizing risk and fostering supportive work cultures. We help companies stay updated on crucial issues and ensure they pave the way to a more secure, successful future. 
 
Board Independent Directors 
 
Build board with vital balance to strengthen governance, foster innovations and promote long-term success. Good corporate governance is vital for the financial success of venture and angle-backed companies. Independent board members play a key role in maintaining a balance and effective board. Their impartiality and experience ensures decision are made in the best interest of the company without conflicts of interest. 
 
Develop Functional Boards
    Some boards have members who are outstanding in their fields but can't function as a cohesive board team. This requires skills be in place to get directors to resolve style conflicts, hold discussions that help move the board in an agreeable direction,and create healthy discussions of ideas. We share our solutions for how to resolve the issues of a non-functional board. 
     
    Governance Duties with AI and Emerging Technologies 

     

    Generative AI has the fastest adoption rate of any technology in history. While companies are adopting AI, few have implemented solid strategies and governance frameworks for management and oversight. Our team guides directors to prepare to govern effectively in the new era.
