It\u2019s that time of year again when JUMP joins forces with AXA Belgium to organise, for the second year running, the AXA Wo_Men@Work Award.<\/p>\n
The award recognises the business leader in Belgium who has been a fervent supporter of gender equality in management in the course of their career.<\/p>\n
The success of the first award ceremony last year highlighted that gender balance and diversity are high on the agendas of some businesses and organisations.<\/p>\n
\u201cAn effective gender policy is possible as the 28 applications for last year\u2019s first AXA Wo_Men@Work Award proves,\u201d says Els Baton, CIO of AXA Belgium and President of the award jury \u201canalysing [last year\u2019s nominations] showed that the CEO\u2019s personal commitment and flexible working models are the two main conditions for success in a gender-balance business\u201d.<\/p>\n
Time has certainly flown by since we awarded the first laureate Albert Ragon, General Manager of Danone Belgium. It has been a busy year for our winner as he has been invited by many boards, medias and companies to talk about gender balance and diversity practices since receiving his award.<\/p>\n
