Editor’s Note: ESOMAR Council Elections are coming up, and as big fans of the association and friends of many of the people standing for election we thought we’d open the blog for any who want to advocate for their candidacy to explain to our readers why they should get their vote. Today we are showcasing everyone who is standing in the elections, and it’s quite an impressive list.
Every two years ESOMAR, thé global market research association, elects its Council Members. This council, made up of 11 members from across the globe, is responsible for achieving ESOMAR’s overall vision, mission and objectives. And yes, such a membership entitles much more than just a LinkedIn profile update, the ESOMAR Council is a crucial influencer and thought leader in our industry. As a global organization (active in 130 countries) this Council has a major impact on the direction our profession is evolving, both locally and internationally.
