 BoDs look to identify new director candidates, those with leadership potential, unique insight, and interdisciplinary experience to add significant value for business transformation.

Complexity and uncertainty are part of business reality. The digital era upon us means rapid change, the era of people-centricity, the expanded spectrum of innovation. All of these changes bring significant opportunities and responsibilities for the new breed of digital BoDs. 

The real dilemma of the board of directors is that driving the business forward is extremely difficult, because you need to look into an unknown future and attempt to define the landscape with its risks and opportunities. There are quite a lot of things corporate boards need to shape up, there are the next practices of the boardroom to improve governance effectiveness.

Organizational strategic or long-term planning, analysis and valuation should top the list in the digital board’s agenda: The corporate board as the top leadership team advises business strategy. The senior leadership such as the corporate board should reflect on how profound of your thinking and how persuasive your communication is. Digital board directors with strategic acumen present in-depth knowledge about the business and expertise in multiple domains, helping the business in strategy development by seeing things from different angles and providing invaluable feedback to business management teams for leading digital transformation.

Board of directors need to educate themselves by hearing different views about the organization, take initiatives to provide strategic insight, and pay more attention to the most critical issues. The insight of the situation requires deep observation, comprehensive knowledge, in-depth understanding of the business environment, and digital ecosystem, So BoDs can gain fresh perspective, to make strategic decisions and lead transformative change smoothly.

The corporate board’s oversight of innovation management helps to criticize innovation strategy as an integral component of the business strategy: Innovation is one of the most differentiated business competencies for business long term success. Corporate boards as one of the top leadership pillars should practice open-minded leadership, make commitment to support innovation initiatives, create the space for cross-boundary dialogues and debates, set the right risk-taking appetite, tie innovations to the organization's strategy and scale innovation effect systematically.

Applying the good policies allows the company to create the right climate for business improvement. The BoDs set the right policies for encouraging business innovation and transformation. They can work closely with the management to orchestrate an innovative ecosystem in which all ecosystem participants as active agents can innovate collaboratively to create new concepts, ideas, experiences for innovation to blossom.

Organizational boards’ succession plan needs to be well aligned with the board composition, the business’s strategy evolution and transformation: The corporate boardroom composition will directly impact how they lead and which tone they will set for the entire organization to follow. Corporate boards should have to demonstrate that they are following a truly merit-based protocol to build competitive teams for leading organizations forward smoothly.

As corporate boards continue to add the new blood for enforcing digital acumen in the boardroom, they need to be more open minded to compose a team of heterogeneous board of directors with complementary cognition, professional skills, capability, knowledge, and experience to bridge multiple gaps and improve leadership effectiveness. BoDs look to identify new director candidates, those with leadership potential, unique insight, and interdisciplinary experience to add significant value for business transformation.

To improve corporate board effectiveness, the important issue in the boardroom is how the corporate board can accommodate diverse opinions and how they assess them for improving collective decision coherence. Corporate board directors should have sharp eyes to identify crucial problems, unique insight to pinpoint the root causes, coaching and guiding to ensure that the management does things effectively and the strategy management is on the right track to accelerate business performance.
