The Role of Technology in Board Engagement
New communication platforms are significantly enhancing board engagement by providing detailed analytics on directors' interactions with materials. These platforms enable organizations to monitor how much time directors spend on documents, the questions they ask, and their overall engagement level. This level of transparency exposes which boards are effectively creating value and which are not, compelling directors to increase their accountability. As a result, boardrooms may become uncomfortable spaces, prioritizing effective discussion and decision-making in response to this scrutiny.
