Picture yourself entering a room buzzing with the energy of brilliant business leaders—visionaries from a range of industries, all navigating the complexities of a fast-evolving world. As ideas flow and perspectives shift, it becomes clear: the true power of board leadership isn’t confined only to formal meetings. It thrives in the moments between, where collaboration, curiosity, and deep reflection spark innovation and drive real progress.
In this podcast episode, board directors Fernanda Torre, Operations Director of Boards Impact Forum and CEO Next Agents and Liselotte Engstam, Chair of Boards Impact Forum, Board Member at Climate Governance Initiative and Founder Digoshen dive into the evolving role of board leadership, highlighting the importance of facilitation both inside and outside the boardroom. They explore the shift from traditional board oversight to a more engaged, ecosystem-based approach, where board members gather insights, explore innovation, and engage in peer exchanges.
Key discussion points include the need for boards to guide innovation management—not just through oversight but by supporting organizational capabilities, particularly in areas like AI, sustainability, and future thinking. They emphasize that today’s board members must navigate a fast-paced world, integrating new knowledge while balancing guidance with control.
One highlight is the concept of peer exchanges, where board members from different sectors share their challenges and solutions, creating a collaborative environment for learning and reflection. These exchanges allow board members to discuss operational strategies and industry-specific challenges, offering a holistic perspective on how different areas impact each other.
Don’t miss out on this insightful conversation that bridges theory, research, and real-world application. Learn how facilitating discussions and peer learning can transform board dynamics in a time of rapid change.
