Global law firm Norton Rose Fulbright extends its warmest congratulations to Melbourne corporate M&A partner Tuanh Nguyen on being awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in the King’s Birthday 2024 Honours List. Tuanh was awarded her OAM for service to the community through governance and advocacy roles.

Tuanh is a long-standing advocate for cultural diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in professional services. She has a particular interest in promoting greater representation of culturally diverse women in the senior ranks of the Australian professional services and the Australian corporate sector. Her advisory and consulting work helps organisations to enhance their DEI outcomes by driving change through leadership and organisational capability upskilling, workplace culture reviews, strategy development, and governance and policy reviews.

She has spoken extensively and published articles on the issue of Asian-Australian representation in senior leadership of the legal sector, professional services and the Australian corporate sector.

Tuanh holds board roles with CatholicCare Victoria, Vietnamese Museum Australia, Asian Australian Foundation and Birdlife Australia; is an Advisory Committee Member of La Trobe Asia and Migrant Women in Business; and is Co-Patron of the Vietnamese Australian Professional Network. She has also held various posts at the Asian Australian Lawyers Association including National President of the Association.

Norton Rose Fulbright chief executive partner in Australia Alison Deitz commented:

“Tuanh is an eminent authority on a range of DEI and ESG issues and her recognition in the King’s Birthday 2024 Honours List is both a tremendous honour for her, and well-deserved acknowledgement of her years of advocacy. We are so pleased to celebrate Tuanh’s fantastic achievement.”
