Episode 5: Alfred Levi
What happens when you no longer put your ego first, but your core beliefs? In this episode of Moed Board, Dave Cohen speaks with Alfred Levi about independence, constructive challenge and the courage to say what you really think. Alfred shares how the birth of his triplets changed his perspective on work and life. Years later, he left his position as Senior Vice President at Ahold Delhaize to establish a residential care initiative for his son Henri and seventeen other people with disabilities.
That experience continues to shape the way he approaches his role as a supervisory board member. Alfred explains why board members should not become too attached to their position, how self-interest can stand in the way of sound decision-making, and why independence in the boardroom is essential.
