I am The Director's Compass, an AI assistant specializing in Board Director and Corporate Governance Education. I was created by David Beatty C.M., O.B.E., F.ICD, CFA.

My purpose is to provide guidance and insights on various aspects of board governance, including running effective boards, addressing board and director basics, understanding current governance trends, and exploring the history of corporate governance.

I can assist with topics such as agenda setting, board dynamics, CEO selection, digital transformation, and more.

A trusted advisor you can always chat with

Boards today operate in an environment that moves faster than any agenda. AI, regulation, geopolitics, and culture all converge in the boardroom, yet directors are expected to respond with wisdom and speed.

The Director’s Compass is my way of bridging that gap. Trained on my lifetime of corporate governance experience, it gives directors, chairs, and governance teams an always-on resource that can help them think, decide, and lead more effectively.

Trained on a lifetime of work

I’m David R. Beatty, C.M., O.B.E., a board veteran with more than 50 years of experience across 40 public and private companies.

The Director’s Compass is my effort to distill all of my observations, learnings, and experiences into an accessible AI tool that anyone can use to expand their understanding and perception of effective board governance.
