MIT Sloan - What Makes a Board Digitally SavvyNichole Jordan
On a digitally savvy board, members have an enterprise-level
understanding of current technology such as digital platforms, AI, big data, and mobile and digital processes
that enable new business models, an improved customer experience, and more efficient operations. Being a
digitally savvy director is often a consequence of one of two activities: time spent, either as a board member
or a senior executive, in a high-clock-speed industry where business models change quickly, such as
software or telecom, or having an executive role with a strong technology component, such as CIO, CTO,
COO, chief data officer, or, more recently, chief marketing officer. Given their perspective, such board
members have a sense of when to commit, when to experiment, and when to partner. They can also spot
early indicators of both successes and challenges for new initiatives operating at enterprise scale.

The Next Challenge for Economic Development - Proactively Responding to Digit...Ben Wright
Learn why digitally sourced leads are the number one opportunity for your community and review available tools to generate digital leads.
Discover how two leading EDOs are generating and responding to digital prospects and learn how to take advantage of these trends for your own community.
Five years on, it’s no surprise that the digital landscape has moved on significantly since we first published our Digital Maturity Index (DMI) back in 2010.
We're delighted to be publishing this year's research findings in DMI 2014: The digital ecosystem of technology, channels, customers, strategy and culture and the insights in this year’s report show just how far organisations have come in the intervening years.
Based on interviews with over 200 consumers and 150 business leaders from a range of industry sectors, this year’s report also includes opinion pieces from five digital thought leaders.
Our MD, Emma Robertson, unveiled the report with clients at our annual launch event in London. She talked though some of the headline findings building on the principle that as digital becomes more integral to the underlying strategy, the component parts of digital maturity must be treated as an ecosystem, not a hierarchy. The focus this year is about smartly combining technology, channels, customers, strategy and culture for both customer and commercial benefit. Here are just a few of the headlines:
Technology: In 2012, 87% of organisations had no formal processes for innovation. By 2014, 67% of organisations are using hackathons, labs or open APIs.
Channels: The drive to establish a digital presence in every new channel that emerges is being replaced by more strategic behaviour with 66% focusing on consolidation of existing channels and only 34% looking to grow the number of channels on offer.
Customer: 53% of respondents now measure customer happiness as a way of assessing how well digital channels are performing; 66% use a customer satisfaction index.
Strategy: 65% of respondents reported that there is a digital vision and strategy within their organisation but just 6% stated that the strategy is very well known within their organisation.
Culture: A factor in creating an environment for change and innovation is in an organisation’s tolerance for failure. Only 15% of organisations were recognised as having a ‘fail fast’ culture.
We were also joined by three industry leading keynote speakers. Some of the key things we took away were:
Easy is the new loyalty. Dr Nicola Millard, BT, talked us through the concept of 'net easy' and how omnichannel is the new normal.
Start with the user. Kathy Settle, GDS, shared very candidly the work that has taken place during the past 2-3 years to transform government services.
Be Human. Professor Moira Clark, Henley Business School, outlined the key factors required for customer service excellence.

On Wednesday, the 23 of August, 2023 at 12 pm (est), you’re invited to join OnBoard as we wrap up our Summer Lunch Break series with a final webinar focusing on Assessments and Questionnaires. Your OnBoard team will be covering the configuration of these tasks within the Task Management feature.
Annual board assessments and director and officer (D&O) questionnaires are ingrained in your processes but are proven to be time consuming. From preparation to analyzing results, a significant investment is required from those involved.
Let us help reduce complexity with these action items within OnBoard. Not only are these items easily configurable, but they’re easy to assign and track progress to hold your board accountable.
Collecting and distributing materials effectively is often challenging. When multiple stakeholders are involved and there’s a variety of content, organization and accessibility are key. Perhaps you’re uploading Policies, Bylaws and Procedures, or maybe you’re curating relevant content or compiling meeting minutes from the past year. With the guidance of your OnBoard team, this webinar will enable you to better structure this repository of information in a way that most benefits your board.
Mastering Meeting Minutes with Minutes BuilderOnBoard
On Wednesday, the 2nd of August, 2023 at 12 pm (est), you’re invited to join us as we kick off our Summer ‘Lunch Break’ series with a webinar focused on mastering Minutes Builder, an essential tool within OnBoard.
Grab your lunch and make yourself comfortable as we uncover best practices for recording minutes directly within OnBoard.
This session will focus on using Minutes Builder and how it helps to streamline your workflow. You’ll see how agenda-based templates will simplify your note-taking, helping you to capture the right information, hold everyone accountable, and stay on top of action items for your board.
Struggling to juggle the notes, minutes, approvals, and more for your board and its committees?
Join us to learn how other organizations use OnBoard to manage different boards, committees, and groups – all at the same time. Organizations who adopted OnBoard at the committee level in addition to their board achieve an ROI 2x higher than organizations who use it for their board alone.
OnBoard can be your one-stop-shop for every report, approval, and decision that helps inform the board from their supplemental committees, helping you forge a holistic governance strategy.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Good afternoon and welcome to this webinar hosted by OnBoard as part of the our Atlas leadership series.
I your host, Robert Barham-Brown, but know to all as Bob, and I’m Senior Manager of the Customer Success Team here at OnBoard and I’m joined today by Gaetan Cotton, Senior Service Designer with the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education, we get to speak with Gaetan shortly.
A quick introduction to who we are at OnBoard:
We are a board management software
Designed to work the way you do
Reducing complexity so boards and leadership teams can work smarter, move faster, and achieve more for the organizations they govern.
Some incredible statistics: To date, OnBoard is used by more than 3,000 organizations, 12,000 committees in 32 countries in a range of industry categories from
Banks
Health Care
Education
Charities
And Public Corporations
The OnBoard platform hosted more 55,000 board meetings last year with the participation of more than 75,000 directors.
Quick housekeeping on today’s call
All guests are muted by default so we won’t hear dogs barking or other background noise,
I will apologies in advance if my dog starts to bark.
If you do have any question or want to make a comment please use the function available to communicate these,
We have 4 polls today
And we will have a Q&A session at the end.
And in the background we Natalie and Darren and are here to help if you have any technical problems.
Ok so let’s move on, Where are boards now?
From where we sit change has been slow over the last couple of decades,
but now boards are experiencing accelerated transformation.
The function of the board has changed over the last 3 years more than we have seen in the last 18 years.
We can take a look at some of the reason for this:
The Pandemic
Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI)
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
The economic downturn and our recovery from that, let’s not dwell on that any longer than needed
And lets not forget about the constant challenge which is not just in our business life Cybersecurity threats.
So how much has digital transformation changed.
This highly complicated slide,
shows a little or a lot of change
and we truly believe there has been exponential change and growth to a digital transformation
and the signals we are getting leads us to expect this to continue,
We are as well seeing an increase in digitalisation of meetings outside the Board room such as Senior Leadership Teams.
So moving from 2021 to 2022 we shared our observation in relation to new normal around Board governance
The first being
The best Board meetings obsessively bias the agenda towards action
Looking and moving forward.
Exceptional virtual board engagement can be achieved by thoughtfully digitizing all board meeting aspects
Digitally native boards, the boards that began adopting and using digital technology in a positive way, are intentional about hybrid meetings, and actively prevent “digital dissing”
The lack of a physical third dimension can kill the spirit of a board; the best Boards overcome this with the adoption of technology to aid them with conversation so they foster collaboration with technology and to improve engagement
So I said at the start we were going to get you involved, so grab that mouse,
The first poll question is
How is your board meeting today?
In person
Digital this can be any form of video not just Zoom
can We open the first Poll please.
So I’ll give you a few moments to submit your answer ,
Results:
Thanks for that’s, I’ll keep them for later.
Ok, Where will board tech take us
One of our partners the National Association of Corporate Directors (this is one of our US Partners) published a study at the end of 2021, and we noted 3 trends that we thought would be relative
The three indicated are
Increased competition for talent
We have seen this, and a number of our customers have said the same
Digital transformation 2nd on the list
And one that I have already highlighted will always be a headliner Cybersecurity threats.
There are other areas on this list and I’m sure have received our attention and possibly this results would more than likely look different today.
Ok, it’s your turn again with our 2nd Poll question.
Have your board meetings been more effective or less effective in the last 12 months?
Can we open the poll please
Again I will give you a few moments to think about this and make your selection and can I ask when the votes have stopped if you would be able to publish the results please
Results
Ok so we have a bit of insight on this following our Board Effectiveness Survey for 2022. We had close to 1K respondents to this survey
And our survey said
69% said their Board is more effective in the last 12 months
62% noted increased collaboration
46% cited that board engagement was a primary driver of increased effectiveness
This is just a snap shot of the survey and you are more than welcome to visit our website where you will be able to download the complete results.
It’s back to you again for our 3rd poll question
This one will be of interest
Will you be introducing technology to your board room in 2022, well these not much left of 2022 so lets include 2023 meetings,
And don’t look at technology as just board malmanagement software.
You could just be considering changing your current paper based processes over to an electronic form for Assessments, Declarations of interest
or any other paper based process you do with your Boards and committees,
so if we can open this poll please and I’ll give you a short while to answer.
Ok let’s take a look.
Results.
Alright, so I have been talking for long enough,
So I would like to formally welcome our guest today Gaetan Cotton from the Insight into Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education
Hi Gaetan and thank you for your time today and for joining me.
Would you mind telling everyone a bit about yourself and what the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education do?
Thankyou
My question to you Gaetan is, the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education use a Board platform, what made the institute go digital?
And our last poll for you today, is quick
Do you want to be a part of the OnBoard board intelligence journey
