Conseil d’administration

Le Groupe Van Gansewinkel est dirigé par un conseil d’administration, chargé de définir et de mettre en œuvre la mission, la vision et la stratégie de l’entreprise dans son ensemble et d’assumer la responsabilité des résultats obtenus par l’entreprise. Le conseil se penche notamment sur la maîtrise des risques, l’essentiel étant d’identifier tous les risques encourus et de les expliquer le plus clairement possible. Ici aussi, le conseil devra appliquer les principes du Corporate Governance Code.
