Consulting Magazine to Recognize the Women Leaders in Consulting at November 12 Gala

Deloitte's Diane Davies Posthumously Honored With Lifetime Achievement Award

NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ALM's Consulting magazine honors the profound difference women continue to make for their clients and their firms at the Women Leaders in Consulting Gala Awards Dinner on November 12 at the St. Regis Hotel, New York. Deloitte's Diane Davies, who passed away in March 2015, will be posthumously honored with Consulting magazine's Lifetime Achievement Award.

Davies will be recognized for her nearly three decades at Deloitte, serving as a strategy and operations consultant, as well as a mentor and role model to all of her colleagues, but particularly women at Deloitte. She also served as Deloitte Consulting's Chief Talent Officer and on the Deloitte U.S. and Global Board of Directors.

Jim Moffatt, Chairman and CEO of Deloitte Consulting LLP, says, "Diane brought clarity to the complex, set a vision, built great teams, exceeded results, and delivered every time. But what really set Diane apart was her heart. She wasn't motivated by roles or titles, but by a desire to make a difference. That's what allowed her to develop so many future leaders."
