Nomination:
“As an active member of DSBA and a professional with a long-standing experience in the business sector, I would like to apply for the position of Board Member. I believe my knowledge and the fact that I managed the biggest global companies and business associations in Serbia will help the Association accomplish its goals and its vision.
As a professional characterized by transparency and integrity, I will try, together with the other Board members, to contribute to the Association’s sustainable growth, raise awareness regarding the operations and contribution of Dutch companies in Serbia, and honoring all the principles we set as a Board.
I deeply believe that the DSBA has great potential when it comes to advocacy on the local market and together with other business associations it could jointly make an impact on the most important areas of activity for the business community.
Ahold Delhaize is strategically committed to sustainable operations, and the experience and know-how we have in this domain is priceless, and this will certainly be one of the Association’s priorities in the coming years. As a leader of the team which has won the Sustainable Champion award in Serbia for three years straight, I believe that I could serve as great support in setting sustainable goals and the action plan in this segment of the Association.
I wish all the nominees the best of luck in the election process for members and the chairman of DSBA and I’m looking forward to the new business challenges ahead of us”
