International Programme on Board Leadership and Governance Launched in Copenhagen

The first half of the programme launched successfully in Copenhagen, and what a fantastic beginning it was! A full house of professionals and an impressive lineup of experts came together for an engaging two-day experience.

đź“Ť Day 1: Hosted at Nasdaq‘s office, participants explored Purpose and Accountability in Board Work.
đź“Ť Day 2: Held at CBS Executive Fonden, the focus shifted to Structures and Roles.

The programme was carefully designed to ensure every moment added value (special thanks to Monika Lasiene for her efforts!). But none of this would have been possible without the dedication of the incredible people who played a crucial role in making this programme a success.

A sincere thank you to the esteemed faculty Lars Ohnemus, Trond Randøy, Katalin Pallai, Georg Guttmann. They covered essential topics, including:
âś… Effective board work and responsibilities
âś… Management oversight and legal aspects
âś… Transitioning ownership models and governance implications
âś… Cultural differences and the board wheel
…and much more!
