Robert's Acceptance Note

"I would like to thank Women in Management for the very special Award I received on Saturday 16th March at your splendid inaugural event for the UK Chapter. To be selected as your Corporate Male Champion of the Year is an incredible honour. I am most grateful to you as CEO of the UK Chapter and to Sulochana, as Founder and Chair of Women In Management for hosting the Awards and to the esteemed Judges for their decision to choose me from the nominees. I aim to use the Award to amplify the message that we need to keep pushing for gender equality and that we need more women in management in our organisations. I will be engaging men, especially male leaders, to step up and take actions for inclusion. They can play an important role in speeding up progress, especially in the corporate sector. I will look forward to being a member of Women in Management UK and to doing what I can to support your national and global goals."
