Tish Gilbert

Head | Nordic Corporate Communications & Sustainability

As of 2022, the Norwegian population consists of 49.9% females and 50.1% males. Females, for the most part, have strong buying power in Norway. That said, it makes sense that we also have strong decision-making power with more seats on Boards as well.

CEO I U.Impact

No one could have predicted the last 3 years and the transformational impact this will have on businesses. On everything from transforming digital ecosystems and market evolvement, to how we interact individually and in teams. Laying the foundation for the next years has to be based on a diversity of mindsets to strengthen how businesses will meet the coming times of uncertainty!

Medical Advisor I MSD Norge

To remain relevant in an increasingly competitive world it is imperative that companies should include women of color in their business leadership. We should stop talking about them when taking decisions, rather including them when making decisions! Because if we continue to choose talents from the same pipeline we are deemed to familiar perspectives.

Portfolio Manager & Board member I Fondsfinans

A diverse board in terms of knowledge, expertise and world view is an asset to companies as they are faced with an increasingly complex set of challenges and opportunities. Female and minority board members can contribute with a different perspective that can provide meaningful support to a company as it manoeuvres the evolving regulatory, technological and commercial landscape.

Co-founder & CEO I No Isolation

If you hate having meaningful discussions and hearing valuable opinions, you should avoid having women on your board. If you have any sense at all, you want your board to be as diverse as possible. Because #science.

Co-founder & CEO I Skyfri

Diversity in boards and leadership is essential because it provides a broader range of perspectives and a more dynamic approach to value creation. The board brings valuable networks, insights, and effective processes to the table. A strong and diverse board ensures that these elements are properly managed and accounted for.
