For this Board Check-in, we are delighted to be joined by Tracy Watkinson, who will share her unique journey to the boardroom.
There will also be an opportunity for Q&A and discussion at this informal session.
Tracy has been a valued member of our network for over a decade. We first met her at one of our in-house workshops, where she revitalised her ambition and identified a need to build her networking and influencing skills. With our recommendations and resources, Tracy developed these skills and has since become a COO at NatWest, in addition to holding various community board roles.
