"Today boards working within a single national framework simply cannot fend off their greatest threats or seize their greatest opportunities. The most obvious examples of global interconnectedness may be found in cybersecurity and artificial intelligence, but there are multiple areas that call for cross-border director dialogue."
- Peter Gleason, NACD President and CEO.
2024 Blue Ribbon Commission co-chairs, Nora Denzel, NACD.DC™ and David Kenney discuss the intersection of technology and trust in the Edelman Trust Report newsletter. "As cochairs of the National Association of Corporate Directors’ 2024 Blue Ribbon Commission on Board Oversight of Technology, we and 22 other board leaders are developing governance best practices and resources to help shape boards’ oversight of the value-creating potential—and risks—of technology. Our report will inform investors and policymakers about the steps boards are taking to earn the trust of their customers and communities."
According to NACD's annual Board Trends and Priorities Survey, the top three trends that will have the greatest effect on companies are threat of economic recession, increased regulatory requirements and changing cybersecurity threats.
