In deze aflevering duiken Yousri Mandour en Sven Turnhout samen met governance-expert en auteur Marilieke Engbers in de fascinerende wereld van de bestuurskamer. Waarom blijft in veel boardrooms het echte gesprek uit? Wat maakt het zo lastig om elkaar stevig aan te spreken of twijfels te delen? En hoe zorg je dat ongemak niet onder het tapijt verdwijnt, maar de motor wordt van echte strategische reflectie?
What happens in the boardroom when power and vulnerability collide? In the latest episode of De Boekenpraktijk, Marilieke Engbers and Pim Bouwman talk to host Willem van Leeuwen about their book 'Eenzaam aan de top'. The book offers a revealing insight into the dynamics of power, vulnerability and blind spots within organizations.
In deze AethiQs serie bespreek ik met Jochem Sluis van Aethics de essentie van goed bestuur, goede besluitvorming, macht, leiderschap en hoe het ongezegde de besluitvorming in de boardroom beïnvloed.
At BNR Nieuwsradio, I'm a boardroom panelist, reflecting on boardroom cases. I do this based on theory, empirical research, and the many self-evaluations I've facilitated for supervisory and non-supervisory boards. This time, I'm discussing Schiphol Airport, the knowledge test for accountants, and insider trading and irrational rules.
Governance in conversation is an irregularly published podcast by Hartger Wassink and Marco Frijlink. In this episode, Marco and Hartger talk to Marilieke Engbers. Her new book 'Loner at the top' (written together with Pim Bouwman) will be published on May 21. The book is about the unsaid, power and fallacies in the boardroom. In the conversation, Marilieke discusses the development of her new book in detail and shares her insights and experiences
Marilieke Engbers talks with Kustaw Bessems about her specialism: that which is not said, but is meant. And explains why critics such as Pieter Omtzigt or Sylvana Simons encounter so much resistance and why the corona approach is so prone to errors.
For AT5 I was asked to briefly explain my view on the governance of AJAX.
De governance van Ajax – en dus ook het leiderschap en de cultuur – volg ik al een tijdje actief. Ik sprak er meerdere keren over bij BNR Nieuwsradio, wat betekende dat ik me echt moest verdiepen in de structuur en de spelers binnen die governance. Wat me fascineert, is hoe zichtbaar en bespreekbaar alles wordt wat governance interessant maakt
In this new podcast, Astrid Kraag and Marilieke Engbers delve into the world of governance collaboration. Together with host Iris Gündel, they discuss the dynamics that arise between board members, the often invisible influences that drive decision-making, and the role of power in this complex interplay. What happens behind the scenes? How do personal relationships and group dynamics influence the course of an organization? Together, they investigate the subtle forces at play in effective governance, and how leaders can better navigate this field of forces.
After Onder Commissioners, Marilieke Engbers wrote the book Lonely at the Top, together with Pim Bouwman. In this podcast by Nieuwe Ankers, she advocates a new management culture, in which 'the boardroom is humanized,' with an eye for the defensive and irrational, which is also inherent in everyone. She hopes that CEOs dare to put their dilemmas on the table for the outside world, but says that this is only possible in a world in which media and journalism also dare to change. A good start: no longer interpreting everything in terms of winners and losers.

It's time for conclusions. For five episodes, Sander talked to entrepreneurs, administrators, arable farmers, politicians and activists to investigate what drives change.
