Katherine Smith Dedrick is NAB’s New Chair

Katherine Smith Dedrick, JD MBA, has started her term as the Chair of the North America Branch. Katherine says, “during my term as Chair, I look to raise the awareness of the Chartered Institute’s and NAB’s superb training, education and collaboration among members and different branches which leads, in my opinion, to “best in class” arbitrators. Part and parcel of this goal is to continue NAB’s interaction and collaboration with different branches in different countries, work to increase diversity and inclusiveness and continue to spread the benefits of arbitration in resolving disputes.
