Jackson Walker proudly congratulates Houston partner G. Scott Fiddler on receiving a Leadership Excellence Award during the National Diversity Council’s 17th Annual Diversity & Leadership Conference. Each year, this award is presented to a select group of individuals who are exceptional leaders within their organizations and communities.

In addition to receiving the Leadership Excellence Award, Scott will speak at the conference on a panel entitled “Creating Your Personal Board – The Power of Mentors & Allies.” During the discussion, Scott and his fellow panel members will cover how to find potential members of your own “board” of advisors and advocates to help navigate career transitions and personal growth.

The National Diversity & Leadership Conference will be held on April 21-22, 2021, and April 28-29, 2021. To learn more, visit the conference page.
