The value-added Board brings the high-performance result, “deep common sense,” balance, improved strategic thinking, creativity, wisdom and more.

The boards as top leadership team can no longer avoid, delegate, or ignore the need for technical competency among their ranks.

Leadership including directorship is crucial to strengthen the business links and weave them to the differentiated business capabilities.

Digital leaders including board directors today need to understand that the linear management skills are not sufficient to lead today’s nonlinear digital world with the deep learning curve.

Every authentic leader needs to mind certain gaps and bridge the cognitive difference.

The high-performing board shows the ability and openness to question itself and its decisions and discussions.

The board should set digital principles and guidelines for allowing the business to manage innovation in an effective way.

Innovation is too important to leave solely in the hands of the management team without any oversight or guidance by the boardroom.

The purpose of Innovation Management is not to promote innovation, but to manage innovation as a process.
