We are so delighted that Law Debenture was announced winner of two categories of the INSEAD Alumni Balance in Business Initiative at their second annual Gala Dinner last night. Taking home FTSE250 Trailblazer Exco and Direct Reports and Best overall ExCo, Direct Reports and Board representation was such welcome recognition of the work we are putting in to make an impact in this area.
There is of course so much more still to do, as reiterated by all in attendance and the event’s keynote speakers who also noted that we should be encouraged by our progress.
Law Debenture CEO Denis Jackson collected the Awards and referenced the ideas shared by the keynote speakers of casting the net wide and taking a risk on talent, not just focusing in on experience.
Thank you Florence Hamilton, Jon Geldart Hon DBA, Sir Robin Budenburg, Milena Mondini de Focatiis, Norman Fiore and Vivienne Artz OBE FCSI (Hon) CMgr CCMI AIGP for an insightful evening.
