Boardroom 2030 How Ambidexterity Shapes the Future of Corporate Governance

The technological change is accelerating rapidly. New rules in global business ecosystems are disrupting established business models. Digital technologies like artificial intelligence challenge even the most proven products and value propositions. The corporate world is transforming at every level — and corporate governance must evolve alongside it.

How can governance bodies drive and support a corporate transformation to secure the company’s future? How can they stay ahead of disruptive change instead of just reacting to it?

This book advocates for ambidexterity in supervisory boards — the ability to balance stability and innovation. It explores how today's governance bodies can evolve into tomorrow’s pioneers by leveraging ambidexterity to oversee, guide, and challenge management. It shows how they can act as strategic sparring partners in shaping a competitive future while embracing an increasingly interconnected world.
