Предметом исследования является определение роли совета директоров организации в рамках корпоративного управления информационно-коммуникационными технологиями (далее — корпоративное управление ИКТ) на этапе ее цифровой трансформации. Цель статьи — исследование и выявление тенденций и специфики такого управления с учетом российского и зарубежного опыта. В работе используются методы обобщения, синтеза, сравнительного анализа подходов к определению роли совета директоров в период активных технологических изменений в организации и факторов, повышающих эффективность осуществления корпоративного управления ИКТ. Автором обобщена и проанализирована специфика такого управления, включая особенности его применения, необходимые организационные изменения, а также основные задачи совета директоров в этой области, что определяет научную новизну исследования. Эффективность корпоративного управления ИКТ советом директоров рассматривается автором в качестве критерия оценки готовности организации к цифровой трансформации и необходимого инструмента обеспечения исполнения членами советов директоров своих обязанностей. Делается вывод о том, что она зависит от множества факторов и требует учета специфики конкретной организации и стратегии ее развития. Результаты работы могут быть актуальны для российской корпоративной практики и дальнейших научных исследований в данной области.

The following paper’s research subject is to determine the role of the board of directors of an organization in the framework of information and communication technologies governance (hereinafter — ICT governance) at a company’s digital transformation stage. The article aims to study and identify trends and features of ICT governance, taking Russian and foreign experience into account. Methods of generalization, synthesis, comparative analysis of up-to-date approaches are used in the paper to outline the role of the board of directors during a period of dynamic technological changes in the company and factors increasing its ICT governance effectiveness. The author summarizes and analyzes the ICT governance specifics, including the features of its application, the necessary organizational changes, as well as the main tasks of the board of directors in this domain, which determines the scientific novelty of the study. The effectiveness of ICT governance exercised by the board of directors is considered by the author as an assessment criterion of a company’s readiness for digital transformation and a necessary tool to ensure that members of the boards of directors perform their duties. It is concluded that it depends on many factors and requires considering various organization specifics and its development strategy on a case-by-case basis. The research results may be relevant for the Russian corporate practice and further studies in this area.
