Governing boards are often viewed as groups of older white men, oftentimes fuddy-duddy in their dress and mindset, and almost always as those who make the most, but who do the least (with regard to a given workforce hierarchy). As one Harvard Business Review article notes, however, is that boards are actually providing much of the innovation coming out of today’s tech-savvy companies. Some of the boards featured in the article are forming their own innovation committees: innovation and technology, science and technology, technology strategy and innovation, and others, all in the name of brainstorming, networking, providing management with a sounding board, offering a source of external perspective, evaluating on various levels, and much more.
