While there have been improvements in diversity and inclusion in most corporate functions, boards are still populated by people of a very similar background. I rarely such much diversity of thought on boards nor an inclusive culture - instead exclusive. My colleague Wout Van Impe met with GUBERNA - Instituut voor Bestuurders/Institut des Administrateurs to talk about the importance of diversity and inclusion and to give a stepwise guide on how organisations can implement this in their selection and recruitment procedures. "We could state that there is an academic consensus on the fact that diversity is a key ingredient for better quality of governance decision-making. Furthermore, a large body of academic literature finds a positive relation between increasing inclusivity on Boards and Executive Committees and organizational effectiveness. We observe that inclusive and diverse boards and management teams perform better. Collaboration, innovation, improved decision-making, and better stakeholder engagement are all fostered by a diverse composition. We must also keep in mind that diversity is important, but not sufficient. To enhance team performance, it often comes down to inclusion. Nonetheless, in Belgian practice we see that diversity and inclusive leadership are maybe still undervalued in the Boardroom. Some organisations definitely have a ‘diversity problem’. This brings us to Wout Van Impe, partner & Team Director MU Belgium, for a conversation about both technical and strategic issues on how to enhance the diversity and inclusivity of board and leadership teams."
