Inserra, EY Americas Deputy Managing Partner. "Watching our people harness the power of our collective skills to build a better working world for our clients and communities is highly rewarding and I am proud to stand beside them – acknowledging all they have achieved - on this global stage today."

Casey, EY Americas Vice Chair, Transaction Advisory Services. "I am thrilled to recognize the folks standing beside us today, who have combined their business acumen with humanity and purpose to further our efforts to build a better working world."
