HERE'S WHAT OUR MEMBERS HAVE TO SAY

“The AWA Institute is like having a group of friends that actually know what you do – so you’re able to talk about your day and the challenges you faced with people that really do understand – and can offer solutions.”

Dereck Dziva, Institute Gold member and Senior Manager, Association of International Certified Professional Accountants (AICPA)

“It is an exciting time for workplace and employee experience professionals, but with so many published opinions and views, it’s essential that we have access to a group of professionals that we can trust. AWA Institute provides exactly this.”

David Morley, Global Head of Workplace Transformation, Zurich Insurance Company

“I have appreciated the way that the AWA Institute enables a reflective and insightful discussion around a plethora of issues we are all facing relating to work and workplace.”

David Savage, Partner, Charles Russell Speechleys
