“We’re proud to share the measurable contributions our people have made toward a more secure, resilient, and equitable world through their work, their generosity, and their collaboration. We look forward to continuing to drive impact as we work together to create new opportunities, transform our clients’ missions, and change the world for the better,” said Booz Allen Executive Vice President Nancy Laben, Chief Legal Officer and chair of Booz Allen’s board-chartered ESG Committee.
