Understanding Quantum Leadership Part I

Boards that understand the game-changing potential of quantum computing—and its impact on strategy, operations, and risk—will be best positioned to help management integrate this technology into long-term planning and effective governance oversight.

Attendees joined the NACD Northwest and NACD Pacific Southwest chapters for a dynamic two-part virtual series exploring quantum leadership and how boards can position themselves for the quantum future.

In part one, Ashwin Rangin, who has decades of experience and leadership in technology and is the coauthor of Governance in the Age of AI: A Director’s Handbook, laid the foundation for board-level understanding of quantum computing along with key takeaways and questions to be asking in the boardroom. In part two, Rangin was joined by a panel of industry experts who delved into the strategic and governance considerations shaping tomorrow’s most innovative boards. Directors were armed with a working understanding of quantum computing, its impacts and applications, and how to govern in an age of rapid change.
