In an era dominated by AI, cyber threats, and rapid digital transformation, many boards make a fatal mistake: they focus entirely on the technology and forget the people running it.

In this episode of Grit in the Boardroom, Erika Eliasson-Norris sits down with Nneka Abulokwe OBE - a FTSE and Private Equity board veteran, digital change expert, and leading voice on ESG. Together, they pull back the curtain on why board effectiveness relies on absolute intimacy with your organisation, not cold distance from it.
