We’re excited to share the incredible success of our 2024 Lexington Leadership Conference, where we focused on generational differences in the workplace and our commitment to nurturing great talent!
We kicked off the day with a reflection on the past 12 months at Lexington, shining a spotlight on the people who have been instrumental to our success. Our growth was celebrated with a focus on the development of our team:
Our Lexington leadership conference also featured updates on the company, with an emphasis on our people’s contributions and achievements:
Next, we hosted an insightful panel discussion on ‘Recruiting for Attitude,’ highlighting the importance of prioritising soft skills and personality, as we believe that anyone with the right mindset can learn the necessary skills for the job. Thank you Cemal Ezel OBE (Change Please), Jo Harley (Korero), Nathalie (Fat Macy’s) and Shaun Fitzgibbon (Lexington) for being a part of this!
Our guest speaker, Andy Goram, from Purple Story followed with a deep dive into generational differences and how these play out in the workplace.
A true highlight of the day was the return of the Star Awards, where we celebrated exceptional individuals who have shown unwavering commitment to our clients and school communities.
A special mention to our team at Surbiton High School who won the award for Lexington Independents Site of the Year! 🏆⭐️ Congratulations also to our team at Kent College Pembury for their nomination.
The evening wrapped up with a feast of delicious food and drinks crafted by our food team, featuring canapés inspired by classic 70s and 80s dinner party favourites, reimagined with a modern twist. These were served by our talented chef apprentices, underscoring our commitment to embracing generational diversity and nurturing future talent.
Our talented food team at Kent College also treated guests to an innovative selection of vegetarian Indian thalis, served under their ‘Chaat Club’ concept, which was an absolute hit.
Until next year!
A huge thank you to everyone who attended and to our fantastic Lexington team for making the event a success. Congratulations again to all our nominees and winners—we can’t wait for next year!
