BrandshapersMDis grantedscholarship
LIZ CLARKE, the Managing Director of Brandshapers ltd, one of Ireland’s fastest-growing retail marketing and distribution companies, based in Wexford, was recently granted a scholarship for a Diploma in Leadership by the Irish Management Institute (IMI) sponsored by the 30% Club.
There were only two fully-funded scholarships worth €10,000 available and Liz was offered one of them based on her experience and achievements in business. The 30% Club launched in Ireland in January 2015. Part of its programme of activities has been the development of a cross-company, cross-sector mentoring programme that complements existing schemes in the Irish market and within individual organisations.
The scheme, facilitated and managed by the Irish Management Institute, offers mid-career women mentoring, focusing on their professional and personal development.
To celebrate this partnership and their combined commitment to addressing gender imbalance and helping more women reach influential positions, the 30% Club and the IMI were offering two fully-funded scholarships, each valued at €10,000, to deserving high potential female executives to avail of an IMI Diploma in Leadership. The scholarships are for 2017 programmes and commence in autumn.
