About the Masterclass:
Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face unique challenges in corporate governance, compounded by the rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Our masterclass addresses these challenges head-on, comprehensively exploring how AI is reshaping corporate governance in these regions, with a special focus on Curacao.
We're thrilled to announce Marilieke Engbers as our keynote speaker. With over two decades of experience as a consultant in leadership and change, Marilieke brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. She defended her dissertation on "How the Unsaid Influences Strategic Decision-Making in Boards of Directors" on October 14, 2020, at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. Marilieke's expertise extends to teaching strategy realization for the Vrije Universiteit's controller program and providing guidance to boards of directors and supervisory boards on various governance matters.
In December 2021, Marilieke co-authored the book "Amongst Directors: How the Unsaid Influences Decision-Making in the Boardroom," further elucidating the dynamics of decision-making within corporate governance.
