Elaine Invited to Share Leadership Insights at TEAMWomen Event
We’re delighted to celebrate Elaine Irving, Owner and Managing Director of Extension Recruitment, being invited to take part in TEAMWomen: Building Recruitment Businesses, a leadership event from The TEAM Network that brings together female leaders from across the recruitment sector.
The event, Leadership Lessons from Female Founders, is designed to explore the different stages of building and leading successful recruitment businesses, offering practical advice and inspiration for professionals throughout their careers. Hosted by Jahisha Thomas, the discussion features respected leaders who each represent a different phase of business growth.
Elaine has been invited to share her experience in the‘Scale’ segment of the event, focusing on what it takes to grow a successful recruitment business, develop a leadership style and build a high-performing team while staying true to the values that make a business unique.
Having led Extension Recruitment through years of growth and change, Elaine brings a wealth of knowledge and real-world insight to the conversation. Her invitation to participate is recognition of the experience, dedication and leadership she continues to demonstrate within the recruitment industry.
