Boards of the Future Will Need Artificial Intelligence

Futurist Tom Cheesewright has set out his vision for non-executive boards, saying not every member will be human. Speaking at the launch event for In Touch Networks, formally Directors Online Network, Cheesewright said there will be an element of A.I in years to come. The founder of applied futurism practice, “Book of the Future” addressed a gathering of 30 attendees at the company’s new Peninsula building offices. Delving into what the future holds for company boards he said: “Successful organisations are like athletes. They need to see what is coming, be really fit and have the right reflexes to respond.”
