FORE School of Management starts its Global Leadership Lecture series

The Economics and Business Policy Area of FORE School of Management organised a lecture titled ‘Corporate Governance for the Social and Ecological Transition’ as a part of its Global Leadership Lecture series.

The lecture was delivered by Antoine Reberioux, professor of Economics at the University of Paris, France. The B-school’s Global Leadership Lecture series is focused on all-round development of management students.

Reberioux discussed various parameters such as environmental challenges, inequalities and its consequences, social responsibilities of companies, the importance of codetermination and increased need for gender diversity in leadership.

“There is a crucial need to understand why there is a lack of gender diversity in boardrooms and how representation of women can help in corporate governance. It will also help in understanding if women have a particular style of management and if they are more sensitive to negative externalities,” said Reberioux.

This highly rewarding lecture was followed by a healthy interaction between the expert from France and the students of the institute. The faculty members of the Economics and Business Policy Area of the FORE School Management, Basant Potnuru, Roopesh Kaushik and Shalini Taneja, and dean (academics) Sanghamitra Buddhapriya, were also a part of the panel.

With the Global Leadership Lecture series of FORE School of Management students can analyses and understand business problems in global perspective and also understand how these situations are handled by global leaders.

“The aim of the global lecture series is to help the students of the institute see issues and problems from a global perspective. We hope that it will help them shape their future in a great way,” said Sanghamitra Buddhapriya, the dean of academics.
