The Board’s View on Geopolitics, GenAI, and Culture, with Tracy S. Harris

The modern corporate board has plenty to think about. Traditional focus areas like purpose, governance, strategy, risk management, brand, and reputation play a role, but equally as important are the interconnectedness of geopolitical risk, climate risk, and economic risk, as well as watershed technological transformations like the one we’re beginning to see take shape with Generative AI.

To help us unpack each of these is Tracy S. Harris, a veteran CFO currently serving as an Independent Director for both the Bally’s Corporation and 1847 Holdings, as well as a Trustee for the DC Retirement Board and a board member for The Council of Institutional Investors. 

Tracy explains how every company is a technology company now, how shareholder activism is viewed at the board level, and the integral role the board plays in creating company culture. Stick with us until the end of the episode to hear what makes for a great board member and Tracy’s thoughts on imposter syndrome.
