Ik dacht al ... wat zal er toch van Karen Berg, onze voormalige directeur IR en secretaris van de RvB PostNL zijn geworden. De protégé van HV, want ze kenden elkaar uit de SNS periode. Het plotselinge vertrek en de aankondiging daarvan tijdens de Q2 2018 ( één van de laatste zinnen)
Zij heeft per 17 september 2018 de overstap gemaakt naar Bird&Bird LLP. Je weet wel, Het advocatenkantoor dat PostNL (naast Allen&Overy) bijstond in de procedure bij de CBb en in 2016 PostNL hielp bij het herzien van de strategie in Duitsland. Fijn dat het jongens- en meisjesnetwerk nog bestaat.
