The Power of Impact &Influence
1/10: The power of impact and influence
An evening together with Women on Board & the Vlerick Alumni (Wo)men in Leadership Club
Women on Board and the Vlerick Alumni (Wo)men in Leadership Club warmly invite you to the second edition of their joint annual event on the Power of Influence and Impact.
Influence is the leadership skill that matters at every stage of your career — whether you are stepping into your first leadership role, growing your impact as an executive, or contributing around the board table. Formal authority only takes you so far: real impact comes from asking the right question at the right moment, building support before the decision point, and making your voice count in the rooms where it matters. On 1 October, we dedicate an evening to exactly that skill — how leaders turn presence into influence, and influence into lasting impact.
On the program:
Keynote — Sonja Rottiers, Chairwoman of the Belgian Finance Center and non-executive board member at Bnode and Matexi, among others, opens the evening with her perspective on influence around the board table — where impact is earned through credibility, not through your title.
Panel discussion with leaders who bring an executive perspective: Inge Ampe, CEO of Bank B, Inge Neven, CEO of VITO, and Karel Van Eetvelt, CEO of Whyte EU Public Affairs, moderated by Prof. dr. Barney Jordaan (Vlerick Business School) — exploring what influence looks like in practice, in the C-suite and in the boardroom.
Interactive networking session guided by Prof. dr. Martin Euwema (KU Leuven), designed to put the evening's insights directly into practice.
Networking Drink — time to connect with peers in a relaxed atmosphere.
