Balance between personal and professional lives

Join us for a revealing discussion with Professor Ingo Kleindienst, who will share insights from his research on the effects of CEO divorce on firm operating performance.

This unique perspective offers a nuanced understanding of the human element in corporate leadership, providing invaluable insights for practitioners and business leaders.
