About
the session.
IESE and WHU invite you to gain insights into "Reflections about Good Board Practices".
How does the Board Member selection process impact Board effectiveness? Why is onboarding of new Board Members crucial, and what are some best practices? What role do meeting minutes play in the functioning of a Board, and why are they important? In this session, IESE Professor Marc Sachon and his special guest Dr. Thomas Loesler, Head of the Supervisory Board Office of Allianz, will tackle questions like these and discuss them with the plenum to include everyone's experiences!
This session is related to the High-Performance Board Member Program (HPBM) that IESE Business School and WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management created together and aimed at a better understanding of the workings, responsibilities, and dynamics of a corporate board. And strives, among other objectives, to enhance your core competencies to forge strategic partnerships between the board and senior management.
Join us for an insightful online discussion session on Wednesday, April 30, 2025!
