Randstad to add professor with expertise in digital disruption to supervisory board

December 14, 2017

Randstad Holding nv will propose Annet Aris as a member of the supervisory board for an initial four-year term, subject to shareholder appointment. Aris is an adjunct professor of strategy at INSEAD, where she has taught courses on digital transformation and disruption since 2003. Aris also writes a bi-weekly column in a Dutch daily financial newspaper on the topics of digital transformation and corporate governance.

Previously, Aris was a partner at McKinsey & Co. in Germany from 1994 to 2003.

Other supervisory boards on which Aris currently sits include ASML N.V., a.s.r. Nederland NV, Thomas Cook plc, ProSiebenSat.1 SE and Jungheinrich AG.

She will succeed Giovanna Kampouri Monnas at the annual general meeting of shareholders on March 27, 2018. Monnas must step down from the supervisory board after having served the statutory maximum of three four-year terms.

“On behalf of both the supervisory board and executive board, I take this early opportunity to thank Giovanna Kampouri Monnas for her excellent contribution and commitment to Randstad in the past 12 years,” said supervisory board Chairman Wout Dekker. “I am very happy to welcome Annet Aris as member of our supervisory board. Annet’s knowledge of the digital world can be of great value to Randstad as digital transformation is a very important pillar of Randstad’s overall strategy going forward.”
