The latter has become somewhat of a unique THE One tradition and the applauding audience certainly enjoyed the show.
The international home fashion brand outshone UAE super giant Etisalat and Kuwait's Burgan Bank by demonstrating that their commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goes beyond financial and legal obligations.
The judges assessed evidence of a CSR strategy that integrates social concerns into everyday business operations, including policies, actions or projects that positively impact the community in terms of environment, employment, education or charitable work.
A moved Thomas commented on winning the award:
"At THE One, CSR is not a values issue. It's a priorities issue. We're on a mission to Change the World Together so being named Middle East CSR Leader of the Year is an incredible honour. It's all thanks to the support, love and hard work of our people. They're the real secret of our success. Well done guys!"
Furthermore, having scooped the Recommended Employer of the Year honours in 2007, THE One received a Highly Commended certificate this time around, being one of only three companies shortlisted.
