Nordic Executive Dialogue at IMD - Lausanne

Tuesday 10. February at 18:00 - 21:30

International Institute for Management Development, Lausanne

The Estonian Chamber of Commerce in Switzerland is pleased to invite you to the 3rd Nordic Executive Dialogue, hosted at IMD and organised by the Danish-Swiss Chamber of Commerce, in collaboration with the Nordic Chambers of Commerce in Switzerland.

This exclusive executive evening brings together senior leaders, board members, and decision-makers to reflect on leadership, strategy, and long-term value creation in an increasingly complex global business environment — and to explore how leaders must adapt to navigate today’s uncertainty while preparing for the future.

You are also welcome to join an optional pre-event session at 17:00, featuring an introduction to IMD’s innovative AI-enabled tools, before the main dialogue begins.

Drawing on his experience, former CEO and Chairman of the LEGO Group, Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, will be sharing his perspectives on:

-Navigating the current global business environment, marked by geopolitical uncertainty, technological disruption, and shifting stakeholder expectations

-Making strategic choices under pressure, while preserving long-term value and organisational resilience

-How leaders must evolve their mindset, governance, and leadership approach to successfully lead into the future
