Each year, these awards acknowledge the tenacity and strategic thinking of UK-based CEOs who continue to drive their organisations forward amid market volatility and economic uncertainty, particularly in the UK. Among the array of talented leaders recognised this year, several have demonstrated consistent guidance and unwavering dedication to their respective fields. Amongst these is Jonathan Geldart of the Institute of Directors (IoD) who has shown commendable leadership throughout a year of challenges. His practical approach to directing the IoD while continually supporting business leaders across the UK underscores his dedication to good corporate governance. At HotelREZ Hotels & Resorts, Mark Lewis has effectively blended innovative practices with a service focus, positioning the brand as a trusted player in the hospitality sector. His strategic vision for the company has proven instrumental in maintaining its strong market position. From the fast-paced fintech arena, Simon Paris of Finastra has demonstrated a resilient approach to leadership. His efforts to digitally transform the banking industry are notable as Finastra continues challenging traditional norms and encouraging financial inclusivity. The above CEOs, along with all our award recipients, have exhibited effective strategic and adaptable leadership. They have each, in their own way, set a benchmark in managing the delicate balance between pushing innovation and maintaining a strong focus on their team and customer needs. In this issue, we delve deeper into their leadership journeys and accomplishments. We hope their stories provide valuable insights and stimulate thoughtful dialogue within our CEO Today community. www.ceotodaymagazine.com CEO Today United Kingdom Awards 2023 5
