The late Prince Philip worked hard to support young people starting their careers; the CIOB’s first Student Festival has similar goals, explains Caroline Gumble
Last month CIOB held its first Student Festival. I was delighted to see so many of our student community come together.
I am always impressed that many students and young professionals within the CIOB community already demonstrate real leadership, without having a formal leadership role. They drive innovation and speak out about safety, inclusion and diversity; they help keep the topics that drive positive industry change on the agenda.
Among the many people deserving a shoutout from the festival are the first ever gold medal winners of the CIOB Rising Star award: Vasiliki Bowler and Kelly Attwood. I’m pleased we were able to offer them a platform as they aren’t just Rising Stars in name.
