We would like to recognise a cohort of amazing men and women who are creating positive change by setting an example for their peers, their mentees and themselves.

 

“If you can see it, you can be it”.

 

Behind each of those nominations is a story of collaboration; of people working together to make a positive impact on society. The awards honour their achievements in their professional lives and their ability to collaborate with others to further the cause of diversity and achievement in security.
