This week’s key takeaway:
The Women in Collision Awards, with George Manos
& Keira Dyer
Episode intro:
It’s that time of the year again - the time when
we celebrate the contribution of women in our industry with the
Women in Collision Awards. We speak to two people from our platinum
event sponsors, IAG. George Manos (industry risk and governance
manager) and Keira Dyer (manager of motor assessing
operations).
We get a great insight into what it’s like to be
part of an organisation that is driving inclusivity, why IAG are
sponsoring the awards, and what it has been like for Keira in a
male-dominated industry.
