2025 Annual Member Social Event with Kevin Magee

Hacking Boards and Hardening Governance: Cybersecurity, AI, and the Age of Exponential Risk

AI and digital transformation are opening the door to extraordinary possibilities: smarter decisions, faster innovation, new business models, and entirely new ways to create and capture value. Organizations that move early and provide thoughtful, forward-looking oversight are already seeing the upside. But this isn’t incremental change. It’s exponential. That’s a good thing. These are powerful tools, and when we get the governance right, they become real drivers of innovation, growth, and competitive edge.

But exponential opportunity also comes with exponential complexity. Technology no longer just supports the business; it is the business. Cybersecurity, AI, and digital risk aren’t technical problems to be delegated. They are strategic realities that shape how organizations perform, adapt, and build trust. Many of the vulnerabilities we see on the front lines are really governance failures in disguise—the result of blind spots at the top, not breakdowns at the bottom.

This session is about helping directors close that gap. Not by becoming technologists, but by building the fluency to ask better questions, guide culture, and lead with confidence. We’ll explore real-world examples, practical frameworks, and the kinds of conversations that create resilience before risk becomes reality. If today’s organization is digital at its core, and its operating system includes people, data, processes, and decision-making, then the boardroom is where we shape what’s possible and ensure the organization is ready to meet it with clarity and confidence.
