A new leadership era for ALSO Group, the world's sixth largest IT distributor, as Wolfgang Krainz takes over from outgoing CEO Gustavo Möller-Hergt (who becomes Chairman). In the 12 years under Gustavo, ALSO has grown by almost 80%, expanded from 12 to 30 countries, more than doubled EBIT & net profits and built a billion dollar services business. Share price has increased by 5x. But ALSO's new leadership must navigate a complex set of challenges - the rise of new competitors, the threat from cloud marketplaces, the evolution of channel business models, and a rapidly changing technology environment - while returning ALSO's core business to revenue growth after a tough 2023. IT distributors will play a key role at the center of an increasingly complex partner and vendor ecosystem, but the winners will constantly diversify, build digital differentiation and redefine value models in distribution. #FutureOfDistribution #CanalysForums

6 months ago I embarked on the journey of leading the D&I and culture work at Elekta and today I am happy to share that we have been ranked among the top 15 companies in the Nordic Business Diversity Index! 🎉 This means that Elekta is among the top performing 15 large-cap companies in the Stockholm Nasdaq category in the Nordic Business Diversity Index, examining the diversity of senior leadership in Nordic listed companies.   The diversity of board and executive team composition was assessed based on four publicly available variables: gender, age, nationality and education.   Of course, I can't take any credit for this😊 . And while receiving this accolade is indeed a significant achievement, our commitment to progress does not conclude here. There remains ample room for improvement as we strive to create a diverse and inclusive workplace where all our people can be their authentic selves and thrive.   More info on the Index can be found here Nordic Business Diversity Index 2024 (impaktly.com)   The Nordic Business Diversity Index aims to raise discussion and paint a picture of what senior leadership looks like in the Nordics. It is the most extensive ranking in researching leadership diversity within Nordic Nasdaq-listed companies, including over 600 companies across the Nordics.

“Don't be afraid to ask if you don't know something.  I think that's the greatest sign of intelligence is when people speak up and raise their hand and say, Hey, look, I don't understand this or I need some help, but you also need to, bluff it a little bit, but be confident in your ability to get the job done.” Matt Fry, Hospitality Industry Executive WATCH NOW: https://lnkd.in/eSszsUi2 LISTEN NOW: https://lnkd.in/eriF7F3J Matt shares with Lan Elliott of DEI Advisors how advocating for himself eventually led to his role as Starwood’s SVP, Global Development and what he learned about leading diverse teams when he moved to Asia.  He describes how to find mentors and how a mentor inspired him when he began leading teams.  Matt explains how he develops lasting relationships despite being an introvert, and he encourages us to consider whether we might be living in the good old times right now. #diversityandinclusion #deiadvisors #leadership #hospitalityindustry #empoweringpersonalsuccess #dei
