The opportunity
Boards need your expertise
Only 7% of directors have a digital background, and just 16% claim any level of digital literacy. Meanwhile, 52% of boards list technology disruption as their number-one risk. The gap between what boards need and what they have has never been more acute.
Your digital expertise is exactly what Australian boards are seeking. Digital Directors exists to help you bridge the gap between your technical background and the boardroom - giving you the governance context, presence, and connections to make the transition successfully.
