On 19th November 2024, K2 celebrated International Men’s Day. But as with International Women’s Day, for us, one day just wasn’t enough!
Keen to delve into the rich stories of as many of the business’ wonderful men as possible, we developed a campaign titled The Men of X Annos, which refers to the K2 men who have been part of the K2 Family for ten years or more. This campaign features a series of written and video interviews through which we explore the characters, the careers and the defining experiences of K2’s longest standing male employees. Today, in what is the final article of the campaign, we turn the spotlight onto Richard Booth, an Assessor within the Relocation Experience Team who is open, grounded and calm.
In the following interview, Richard discusses positive male role models, men’s wellbeing, and what he does on a regular basis to remain positive. He also comments on the value of celebrating days like International Men’s Day, and shares the advice that he would give to a young man who is just starting out in his career. Richard is wonderfully honest in this interview, sharing his personal experiences and struggles in a very soft and humble way. His story inspires us and we hope that it does the same for you. Richard, over to you…
Whilst this article concludes our International Men’s Day campaign, the stories of many more of our wonderful male employees can be found within K2’s Human Library. Through this platform, you can also connect with individuals whose expertise you’d like to tap into.
