In the five years since their inception, these awards have been closely linked to the success of women in the public and private sector. Gallagher Convention Centre has confirmed its dedication to the changes implemented throughout South Africa by ensuring the promotion of workplace equality for women and is proud of the nomination and recent win. During the course of 2009, the executive management team was led by Karen Slabbert and was committed to the promotion of best practice in the exhibition, event and conference industry. With women in key strategic positions, including general management and marketing, and an employee management policy which promotes gender equality within the organisation, Gallagher is an employer of choice for women looking to build successful careers within this industry.
Both the public and private sectors are aiming to comply with the legislative changes implemented since the inception of democracy. Gallagher however has put these requirements into practice and is leading the way in establishing a working environment where only the best qualified individual is appointed to fill a position. The results speak for themselves.
