The winners of the inaugural Women in Insurance Awards were announced yesterday evening in a fantastic awards ceremony, with attendees from across the industry gathered to celebrate the success of their peers.
The awards ceremony followed a hugely successful Women in Insurance Summit, which saw over 200 delegates gathered to hear inspiring and thought-provoking talks from New Zealand fashion icon Karen Walker, Achmea Australia CEO Emma Thomas, acting Kiwi Insurance CEO Larissa Vaughan, and many others. Insurance Business extends a huge thank you to all of the speakers, all of whom shared incredible insights into leadership, career success, resilience and facing challenges.
