“Our launch event in February sold out within a couple of days and we hope to build on that momentum to provide a purpose-built event for Guernsey’s next-gen community to network and learn from an inspiring speaker,” said Tom Zierer, Chair of the IoD Next Gen Committee.

Mr Rigby is a renowned keynote presenter around the world. He helps clients with company change, innovation, leadership and employee engagement will deliver a short talk about ‘How to be an Upstream Leader’.

The event on 25 May has been supported by Black Vanilla, Imperium, Investec, Mourant, Praxis, PwC and Ravenscroft – registration is essential. 

Alongside the quarterly networking events, the Next Gen Forum committee is establishing a number of workshops and a mentoring programme to support up-and-coming leaders, who are committed to advancing their careers, with the tools and resources they need to succeed.
