The BIPP has brought on two new directors, Jessica McGovern and Paul Reiffer, who, between them, bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the board. We look forward to their influence and support in shaping the future of the Institute.
As some members are aware, Johanna Elizabeth has decided to step down as Chair of the Board and as a Board Director. The CEO and the Board would like to take this opportunity to thank Joanna for her service and time she has given over the last 15 months; it has been a very busy period for the Board of Directors. Johanna has been amazing in helping in all aspects of the role and creating a very successful business clinic, which has given so much value to our members.
