Meghan Anzelc

Advisory Board

As a board member and global AI and data leader, I have the ability to influence and lead up, down and across an organization and deep technical expertise to lead organizations through technology and digital transformations. I am a T-shaped leader with 20 years of deep expertise in data and AI and broad experience working cross-functionally to drive value.
I have a PhD in physics, starting my career studying the universe nanoseconds after the Big Bang. Today, I help organizations understand how AI is shaping the future, crafting strategies to take advantage of the opportunities AI provides in responsible and ethical ways. My experience as an executive spans organizations from $1B to $69B, including 10 years in financial services. I have a proven track record of transitioning organizations to data-centric product offerings, delivering positive ROI and driving profitability through transformational strategies. I serve as a strategic advisor to C-suite executives and boards of directors on AI, data, and digital transformation across strategy and operations.
I build trusted relationships with transparency and integrity. With >15 years of management experience, I am recognized as a builder of high-performing diverse and agile teams delivering results in uncertain and high-pressure environments. I built and scaled teams from scratch in global public and private companies and transformed existing functions into best-in-class organizations. My management experience spans team sizes up to 50 including geographically distributed and virtual teams. I am viewed as a leader with “superb business sense and communication skills” who makes “very complex issues accessible” and builds effective cross-functional relationships with internal and external stakeholders to execute effectively.
Winner of Diligent’s “”Modern Governance 100″” Compliance & Ethics Leader award. Thought leadership featured in over 20 publications including Fast Company, CSO, CDO Magazine, Diligent, AI Edge, The DCRO Institute, and others.
