Thanks to the support of IFS Skillnet, Allianz Partners has delivered two tailored leadership programmes in 2019. These programmes, which are accredited by University College Cork have provided us with key development opportunities which support our global business growth strategy. Allianz Partners is looking forward to building on this work with IFS Skillnet in 2020
