Anna Glogowska

Board Advisor, Founding Advisory Board Chair and senior executive with 20+ years of international leadership experience across manufacturing, distribution, consulting, shared services and technology-enabled operations. I combine independent Board judgement with deep operating experience and direct accountability for P&L, cash flow, strategy, transformation, risk, customer outcomes and organisations of 100-200+ FTE.

My governance profile is built around four areas: Audit Committee effectiveness, risk and due diligence, Advisory Board leadership, and ethics. I hold the European Board Director Diploma by ecoDa and the Polish Ministry of State Assets Board Directors Certificate (MAP), and have completed an Executive DBA with a thesis focused on supervisory-board due diligence and risk management. I also serve on the Ethics Committee of the Association of Independent Supervisory Board Members (SNCRN).

My Board style is calm, rigorous and constructive. I focus discussions on evidence, decision quality, accountability, long-term value and whether governance processes actually work in practice. I bring a strong ability to translate complex operational, financial, technology and risk topics into clear Board-level questions and actions.
