Live Leadership Podcast: How to ensure better diversity and competence in Norwegian boards?
How do we ensure that Norwegian boards are equipped for the future? Who gets a seat at the table when decisions of great importance to society, business and jobs are to be made? And what is needed for boards to actually represent the diversity of competence, experience and perspectives that exist out there?
On the Topplederpodcasten, former Minister of Finance Siv Jensen, CEO of Virke Bernt G. Apeland, and partner at MeyerHaugen Petter Meyer meet for a discussion about board recruitment, ownership, and what is required of boards in a time characterised by change, demands for sustainability, and increased complexity.
Board composition has long been an under-communicated power issue in Norwegian business. For most limited companies, there remains a significant imbalance in gender representation and little visible diversity. At the same time, we know that a board's composition has a direct impact on the strategic choices made, the issues raised, and the direction in which a company develops. Nevertheless, many hesitate to actively take a stance on how a board is recruited, and what is actually needed to meet future demands. There are also new legal requirements concerning gender balance on Norwegian boards.
