Curley, who has more than 30 years of experience in investor relations, was just minutes away from being presented with the lifetime achievement award. When asked for advice for aspiring IR professionals, she said: ‘Be true to yourself. It’s a very difficult profession and often you can question yourself, especially earlier in your career. Trust your gut.’
