United Diversity | Dirk Luyten & Kay Formanek | TEDxINSEAD

Описание: We live in a world where diversity of talent is acknowledged as critical for societal and business survival. Yet the approach to fostering diversity often leads to division and not to the unity of diversity. Drawing on the ancient fable delivered by Aristophanes in the Symposium, Kay Formanek and Dirk Luyten give a personal testimony of the components of united diversity and how united diversity creates the condition to collaborate with purpose. Dirk P. Luyten has more than 20 years of
experience in strategic management consulting
as Managing Partner at Arthur D Little and
Accenture. Also, for nearly a decade, he has
been investor and CEO in small retail
companies. He currently holds various Board
Memberships and collaborates with Diversity
and Performance. He has worked and lived in
Brussels, Madrid and Tokyo. He holds a Master
Degree in Law and a Master Degree in
Economics from the state University of Ghent,
Belgium. He is an INSEAD MBA, holds a
Certificate in Leadership Excellence through Awareness and Practice (LEAP, 2015) and a Certificate in Strategy in the Age of Digital
Disruption (2016) from the same School.
