Disappointed that Jeff not recognised in the New Years Honours list. He deserved one for services to banking. After all he has taken something on its last legs to be one of the most successful bank in NZ. Another time maybe
Good to see ‘diversity’ to the fore with the top Honours this time round. More new Dames than new Knights. That’s good ...maybe Heartland are on the track with their commitment to diversity.
HBL doing its bit for Diversity. Laura Byrne appointed Head of People and Culture. (would really have ticked all boxes if she was Asian and had one leg) but at least a woman getting a promo is a good step along the way. (Is going from COO to HPC a promotion?)

Laura was already part of the Senior Management Team. I suppose the encumbent HR person Sarah is moving on or something
Having a women in charge of HR doesn't really cpunt as 'diversity'. A large proportion of these leaders are women ....maybe companies feel they need the warm fuzzy empathetic maternal touch to be in charge of people.
Unless the new COO (assuming there will be one) is a woman the balance of diversity of Heartland Senior Manager won't change.
”When investors are euphoric, they are incapable of recognising euphoria itself “
hmm... that doesn't seem very diverse. Isn't it a Mans turn?
No future for a male being a HR professional
Peat - a real good HR person actually involved in the strategic leadership of the busimess can add heaps of value as long as HR is seen as more than just hiring, training and firing

Exciting news.
The market reacted quickly, pushing HBL shares up 1 cent.
