How long have you been a JCI member? 

10 years

What’s the best thing about being a JCI member? 

I am a big fan of the JCI’s global reach. This allows you to deal with people of different culture, beliefs, and background. A key skill as a leader in modern day world. Also, the ability to have colleagues in different parts of the world has also proven particularly useful when you service clients with interest in those areas.

Tell us about a JCI highlight 

At one World Congress I got to meet the Prime Minister of the Netherlands Mark Rutte and the former UN Secretary General Koffi Anan (the Late)!  I was star struck!

How has JCI helped you in your career? 

To me the level and variety of exposure has been a key issue to me. By getting involved in the leadership roles, specific projects & tasks, travel and networking – all of it has brought in a different dimension to my business acumen and confidence.
