Digital Tech's Impact on Board Functioning & Communications

Deloitte's "Bringing digital to the boardroom" is particularly noteworthy for its focus on digital's direct impact on the board itself, rather than the much more frequently discussed impact on the business and associated indirect impact on board oversight. More specifically, this informative new publication addresses how new and emerging technologies are affecting board functionality, operations, communications, expectations, and oversight responsibilities in ways that management and other stakeholders may not have anticipated and should be aware of.

Thoughtful insights from directors and corporate secretaries inform Deloitte's research and observations on how digital technologies are likely contributing to the blurring of traditional management and board roles, and both enhancing and potentially diminishing the quality of management|board communications and information-sharing, as well as how emerging technologies may benefit management and board decision-making going forward.
