Manage episode 497578651 series 2926374
Behind every board decision lies a web of unspoken dynamics; trust, conflict, power, and culture.
Tay Kay Luan, CEO of FIDE FORUM, joins us to share the findings from their study on board culture in Malaysia's financial institutions. He explains how cultural norms like "high power distance" can stifle debate, the crucial role of the chairperson in fostering open discussion, and why cognitive diversity is more impactful than just demographic diversity.
We discuss:
Why board culture is a measurable, strategic asset that impacts the bottom line.
How Malaysia's "high power distance" culture affects boardroom decisions.
The critical role of the chairperson in creating a healthy board dynamic.
The role and importance of cognitive diversity
Practical steps for strengthening your board's culture.
For board members, C-suite executives, and governance professionals, this is an essential look at the intangible forces that drive corporate performance and resilience.
