ERM’s Group CEO, Keryn James, received a Leading Women in Sustainability Award from the World Business Council for Sustainable Development in October 2018.

She received the award for leading a company that makes a material impact on the sustainability challenges and opportunities of our clients. To be recognized in this way by the largest global cross sectoral business organization on sustainability is a testament to ERM and our purpose.

Upon receiving the award, she gave this advice to women at the start of their careers:

“Don't be afraid to take on new challenges when you think you are not quite ready for something you're being asked to take on. You will learn more from these challenges than anything else.”
