Representatives of Amrop, including Alexander Ulanovich, Partner at Amrop Ukraine, participated in large-scale events recently held in Kyiv: the International Defense Industry Forum DFNC2 and the International Investment Summit on Defense Technologies.   These events brought together Ukrainian and international experts, government officials, investors, and representatives of the defense industry to discuss innovations in military technologies and prospects for the development of the defense sector.   Amidst the challenges of global instability, the defense sector has emerged as a strategic cornerstone, not only for Ukraine but for countries worldwide. Investments in this field, particularly in MilTech, are proving essential for driving innovation, bolstering security, and unlocking technological potential. The overarching message of these events highlighted Ukraine's remarkable achievements in defense innovations and underscored the critical importance of its victory in the ongoing war. Corporate governance, promoted by Amrop Ukraine, is a crucial lever for attracting investment and ensuring the sustainable growth of the defense sector. Through executive search services and the establishment of effective supervisory boards, Amrop Ukraine plays a key role in building leadership teams that foster innovation and development, strengthening defense capabilities and enhancing security. #Amrop #AmropUkraine #executivesearch #boardsearch #boardservices #MilTech

Strengthening the defense sector remains a critical priority on the global agenda. A notable example is the Latvian State Defense Corporation, which in 2023 established an Executive Board that included Ingrida Kirse as a key member. Amrop Latvia proudly contributed to the formation of this board, recommending a candidate with extensive expertise in legal affairs and corporate governance. In under a year, the State Defense Corporation achieved significant milestones: - Strengthened its standing in both national and international defense ecosystems; - Participated in an international consortium; - Embedded principles of sound corporate governance. "Strengthening defense capability and advancing technology are among Ukraine's highest priorities.The collaboration between Amrop Ukraine and the global Amrop network facilitates the adoption of the best international practices in Executive Search and Board Services. This is a crucial step toward the successful transformation of both the defense sector and other industries in the country," says Viesturs Liegis, Managing Partner of Amrop Ukraine, Latvia, and Estonia #Amrop #AmropUkraine #executivesearch #boardsearch #boardservices

According to Deloitte Insights 2024, 55% of mobilized individuals change their profession after completing military service, while 46% are considering such a transition. With veterans expected to make up around 10% of Ukraine’s population after the war, their unique skills and experiences present a valuable opportunity for Ukrainian businesses to tap into. “Veterans bring unique competencies, including leadership, strategic thinking, and the ability to perform effectively under stress. Their experience in decision-making and risk management makes them a valuable asset for businesses, especially in fast-changing environments. Integrating veterans into management teams will also help foster a corporate culture that values discipline, teamwork, and social responsibility,” says Viesturs Liegis, Managing Partner at Amrop Ukraine. Amrop Ukraine emphasizes the importance of integrating veterans into leadership roles, especially on supervisory boards, as their expertise can bolster organizational strength and improve adaptability in a dynamic environment. #AmropUkraine #veteransintegration #boardsearch #boardservices #executivesearch  #VeteransatBoards

McKinsey research shows that companies with a high level of inclusion achieve significantly better financial performance in a competitive environment. Leadership teams with gender diversity are 39% more likely to surpass their financial targets. Inclusion is not limited to gender aspects; it encompasses diversity in experience, ethnicity, age, and physical abilities. This enhances business efficiency and fosters innovation, while also improving corporate culture. Inclusion is especially important when forming leadership teams, as diversity enables quicker adaptation to change and more informed decision-making. In the context of the war in Ukraine, the process of inclusion has become crucial for business survival. That’s why Amrop Ukraine builds and develops What’s Next leadership teams with expert precision, global experience, and a focus on inclusion. Diverse teams handle complex tasks more effectively and respond more rapidly to new challenges. #Amrop #AmropUkraine #executivesearch #boardsearch #boardservices #inclusion

“Critical thinking means thinking critically about the way we think." This profound insight is one we should all remember and apply in our daily lives. Last week, the Amrop teams from Latvia, Estonia, and Ukraine gathered for a thought-provoking session led by Inga Springe, where they explored the core of critical thinking in depth.

Our colleagues from Amrop the Netherlands have successfully completed the search for an interim Director of Digital and IT for Bergman Clinics, a leading medical institution specializing in orthopedic, ophthalmological, cardiological, vascular medicine, and other treatments, with over 140 locations in the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, and Denmark.  As interim Director of Digital and IT Menno Vliestra will focus on the digitalization of the patient journey, the rollout of a new electronic medical records system, the implementation of global support systems for group and global functions, and the improvement of group IT governance.  Given the rapid digitalization of the healthcare sector worldwide, Amrop Netherlands’ experience in finding an interim Director of Digital and IT for Bergman Clinics is highly relevant for Ukraine. Improving patient care through innovative digital solutions and involving qualified specialists in this field could be a crucial element in the successful transformation of medical institutions in Ukraine, which are confronted with difficulties in modernizing IT infrastructure.
