Board Governance simulations

What is this capability?

Directors rehearse oversight, disclosure and accountability decisions, from approving AI deployments to signing off on material incident disclosures.

Run these as Microsimulations, full-scale simulations, or facilitated by our team of experts. Each one keeps a record of the decisions your team makes under pressure.

Simulations in this capability

A boardroom at night, illustrating the Green Light: AI Board Governance MicrosimulationAI RiskGreen Light: AI Board GovernanceThis Microsimulation builds your awareness of director accountabilities when a company deploys AI into customer-facing operations. You will be asked to evaluate an AI deployment proposal under commercial pressure, navigate conflicting advice from executives, and test how governance, documentation and disclosure expectations apply when things go wrong. The scenario is based on real-world AI governance and D&O risk patterns faced by organizations across sectors.Microphones at a press conference, illustrating the CEO Fallout: Racial Comments MicrosimulationConduct & ReputationCEO Fallout: Racial CommentsManage the fallout from controversial racial comments made by the CEO, addressing crisis management, stakeholder communication, and executive safety concerns.Courtroom, illustrating the Defrauded: Vendor Payments MicrosimulationConduct & ReputationDefrauded: Vendor PaymentsA long-standing vendor highlights non-payment of a significant volume of invoices, flagging an internal fraud situation.
