In this episode of The Future Fit Edge, Cindy Montgenie sits down with Mauro Rodrigues da Cunha, veteran independent board director with 20+ years of experience, Founder of Engage.MC, and Council Member at the Nasdaq Center for Board Excellence, for a candid conversation on what future-fit governance truly demands in the age of AI.
Together, they explore:
- Why traditional board evaluations no longer reflect real value creation
- How AI amplifies weak governance instead of fixing it
- The hidden risks of safety, comfort, and “clubbiness” in today’s boardrooms
- Why continuous director education is now essential
- What boards must do differently to remain relevant, effective, and trusted
