In 2014 village veteran Chas Jacobsen spoke at our LEADERS SUMMIT to such great applause that we decided to award him a trophy in 2015 as Best Speaker.
Now a tradition, each SUMMIT we announce the Chas Jacobsen Perpetual Trophy for the Best Speaker as voted by delegates from the previous year’s SUMMIT.
In 2016, it was a tie between Alison Quinn (CEO of RetireAustralia) and Debbie McClure (Group Sales & Community Relations Manager, Ryman Healthcare). They each received their trophy last Thursday.
