What is the impact of a more diverse boardroom? Matt Hawksley of the Centre for Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Social Impact | Smith School of Business tackled this question and many more with Assistant Professor Bhargav Gopal during the latest edition of 'Innovation in Motion.' Bhargav's research examined the outcomes of a California Senate rule in 2018 that required the presence of at least one woman on the corporate board by the end of that year. That change rapidly shifted the dynamics of the boardrooms that were headquartered in California and moved the needle from 204 organizations with all-male boards down to only 12 in 2021. It helped to establish better networks and connections for women so that they could accelerate along the pathway. And operating performance, shareholder returns, and firm values were not negatively impacted within those three years. Increasing diversity can be good for business and minority representation.

Women leading boards was the topic at today's Minnesota Chamber of Commerce Women in Business event. Great guidance from Kim Nelson Kate Kelly Diana Garvis Purcel, MBA, NADC.DC and Kathryn (Kathy) Roedel. Some Take-aways: - Questions are the "language" of the boardroom--a lesson applicable throughout organizations. - Breadth vs. depth of role--deep functional experience is valuable and seeking breadth, working cross-functionally elevates future ability to deliver in the boardroom. - Board ready--understanding the exposure and skills you need for the future you. Currency of Transferrable Skills: https://lnkd.in/g82EbACm - Don't wait to be invited -- identify targets, build networks, reach out - Educate yourself e.g., increase familiarity with the Board tools such as the Skills Matrix. AI makes this easy: "give me an example of a board skills matrix" - Good governance acronyms: (NIFO) Nose In Fingers Out, (SEOD) Strategically Engaged Operationally Distant. - 5 killer questions--bringing strategic questions to any meeting is good practice. "Women belong in all places where decisions are being made." — Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg Fortunately we have great resources in the Twin Cities for Board Development: https://lnkd.in/gFmUzcj8 https://lnkd.in/g7dtM5Z8 https://lnkd.in/gTm8t9Fn My shameless plug is for retired Philadelphia Eagles, Jason Kelce featured at the Big G store...Go Birds! #professionaldevelopment #networking #inclusiveleadership #curiousleadership #humanresources #womendirectors
