Knowledgeable BoDs as "Interdisciplinarians"
The BoD’s Knowledge Fit The corporate board plays a significant role in overseeing business strategy, setting effective principles and policies, making sound judgments and assurance of corporate actions within a framework of practical knowledge. Not only do today’s BoDs need to have sufficient knowledge to understand the business ecosystem, but they also should have the collective insight to present today and foresee the future.
BoDs as Interdisciplinarians We live in a world in which change is the norm and if we don't embrace it, accept it, roll with it, or make it happen, we're not going to be successful. The digital enterprises with hyper-connected and interdependent nature are breaking down the functional, geographical, or even organizational border, in fact, businesses today become much more nonlinear, interactive, and intelligent than ever.
Develop the Corporate Board with Digital Acumen Digital organizations are complex systems that are dynamic, self-evolving, self-adaptable, and self-perpetuating. Digital dynamics with “VUCA” characteristics create many blind spots in decision-making and generate quite a few gaps for change and digital transformation. Thus, digital corporate board directors with strategic acumen are in strong demand for helping the business in strategy development and performance monitoring..
The Ultra-Modern Corporate Board with Three “Digital Powers” Due to the complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity, and volatility of the digital era, the directorship in any organization must envision the future boldly and influence changes proactively.

Build an Information-Savvy Board to Thrive in the “VUCA” World Information is the lifeblood and one of the most invaluable assets in digital businesses today, technology is often the disruptive force behind digital transformation.

The “Future of CIO” Blog has reached 3 million page views with 7000+ blog posting in 59+ different categories of leadership, management, strategy, digitalization, change/talent, etc. The content richness is not for its own sake, but to convey the vision and share the wisdom. Blogging is not about writing, but about thinking; it’s not just about WHAT to say, but about WHY to say, and HOW to say it. It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the "hungry minds" and the "deep souls." It’s the journey to amplify your voice, deepen your digital footprints, and match your way for human progression.
