Boardroom Digital Literacy and Data Fluency for New Directors is a practical, no-jargon course designed to help incoming and early-tenure directors confidently oversee technology, data, and AI in line with fiduciary duties. You will learn how digital literacy and data-driven decision-making strengthen strategy, risk oversight, and performance—while avoiding common pitfalls like vanity metrics, misleading visuals, or weak assurance over critical data. The program builds from fundamentals (hardware, software, networks, cloud, and secure communication) to board-ready data fluency (sources, quality, governance) and then into applied practice: reading dashboards, probing assumptions, and converting analytics into decisions. You will also cover board essentials for cyber, privacy, and AI—what questions to ask, which indicators to monitor, and how to set expectations for management reporting and testing cadence. Hands-on labs simulate real board scenarios: deconstructing dashboards for material insights and crafting a concise decision memo for a proposed technology investment. By the end, you will be able to link digital and data topics directly to value, resilience, and culture; integrate them within strategy and enterprise risk management; and communicate oversight actions with clarity and impact. If you want a concise, director-focused pathway to become “board-ready” on technology and data, this course is for you.

            <p>Board service now demands fluency in technology and data alongside traditional oversight of strategy, risk, and performance. This course equips new and aspiring directors to meet those rising expectations by translating digital concepts into board-ready judgment. You will learn how fiduciary duties extend to digital, data, and AI oversight; how to interrogate management’s analytics with confidence; and how to convert insights into decisions and documented oversight actions. Throughout, we anchor skills to the boardroom context—materiality, risk appetite, stakeholder impact, and regulatory scrutiny—so you can separate signal from noise and steer enterprise outcomes, not just review them.</p>

<p>We start by grounding directors in plain‑language digital literacy: the building blocks of hardware, software, networks, cloud, and data lifecycles; the modern collaboration stack; and secure communication etiquette including MFA, encryption basics, device security, and travel hygiene. You’ll learn to evaluate technology choices through reliability, security, regulatory, ethical, and reputational lenses, aligning with board responsibilities for digital and data oversight. We then develop data fluency essentials—enterprise data sources; quality dimensions such as accuracy, timeliness, lineage, and materiality; and the governance foundations of ownership, controls, retention, privacy, and bias management. You’ll practice asking management the right assurance questions and adopt a materiality mindset to link KPIs, KRIs, and leading/lagging indicators to strategy and risk appetite while reading dashboards with visual literacy and skepticism toward vanity metrics and misdirection.</p>

<p>With this foundation, the course moves into application. You will learn how to prepare for meetings, deconstruct board packs, triangulate data, probe anomalies in real time, request sensitivity analyses or independent assurance, and document oversight decisions. We address urgent board topics—cyber resilience, privacy obligations, and responsible AI—focusing on threat landscape, incident response, cross‑border data issues, model purpose and provenance, bias and explainability, and setting clear expectations for policies, metrics, testing cadence, and reporting standards. Finally, we embed digital and data into strategy, risk, and culture through balanced scorecards, value drivers, investment cases, and tone‑from‑the‑top actions that build capability and accountability across the organization.</p>

<p>Practice labs translate learning into board‑ready outputs. In Lab 1, you will dissect a dashboard (revenue, churn, NPS, cost‑to‑serve, cyber incidents, cash runway), assess data quality and assumptions, expose misleading visuals, and draft questions and actions tied to strategy and risk appetite. In Lab 2, you will evaluate a cloud analytics tool for reliability, security, privacy, cost, ethics, vendor risk, lock‑in, interoperability, and exit strategy, define success metrics and leading indicators, and produce a concise decision memo with risks, mitigations, and a monitoring plan. Quizzes reinforce digital literacy, secure communication, data governance, visualization, and oversight of technology, cyber, privacy, AI, and strategic integration—so you leave with practical fluency, confident inquiry, and a clear framework for boardroom impact.</p>
