Different generations bring their own perspectives to the boardroom, which can spark sharper discussions and more balanced decisions, if these differences are truly embraced. Traditional rules on good governance are being challenged: age alone doesn’t say much. What matters are skills, viewpoints, and whether a board makes room for new voices. Adding a younger member is one thing, but how do you make sure they actually make a difference? Panelists Denis Zenner, Béatrice de Mahieu, Hans De Cuyper, Griet Aerts, Sophie Stegen, Saartje Verbeke, and Louis Jonckheere shared their experiences on how generations, shareholders or not, interact and influence board dynamics.
