The subjects that will be addressed have a direct link with the day-to-day practice of the investment professional.The module starts with how psychological influences and biases affect investment decisions, without being consciously aware of it. Knowing these biases can help you dealing with them. Next, we address the transition to the platform economy and its consequences on ways of management. Old management techniques used in industrial organizations need to be revised to apply to organizations in the platform economy. Part of behaviour is how you communicate with the people around you.We therefore take a closer look into (mis-)communication between expert and generalist, as well as man- ager and board member.The second day of this module starts with a deep dive into the investment processes and governance of your customers. How can you assess these elements such that this enables you to provide your customers with the best service? We finish this module with an overview of typical investment dilemmas of a wide range of stakeholders.

  • Awareness of the existence boardroom dynamics and the theoretical underpinning of boardroom dynamics; identifying biases as elements of behavioural finance, System 1 and System 2 thinking, how to improve decision making processes
