Course Description

The fireside chat explores the evolving intersection of ESG/sustainability priorities and the transformation brought about by the rapid mainstreaming of AI-enabled digital technologies at the workplace. Arising from this development, Directors face shifting priorities as managing ESG/sustainability potentially gets sidelined.

In challenging Directors to rethink ESG/sustainability and AI deployment, the conversation positions AI-enabled technologies as critical digital tools for advancing ESG/sustainability outcomes and underscores governance risks associated with rapid AI adoption. It concludes with a practical roadmap for integrating ESG/sustainability and AI-enabled digital technologies.
