Bio
Bo Holm Kristensen
Jeg har i tre år haft fornøjelsen af at være medlem af JA´s bestyrelse med Kirsten Holst som formand. Kirsten har altid været i stand til at finde frem til sagens kerne - kombineret med god politisk tæft - og derefter fokusere på problemets løsning. Det kan være en udfordring i en bredt sammensat bestyrelse, men Kirsten har samtidig udvist god føling med bestyrelsesmedlemmerne, så ingen har følt sig unødigt tromlet. Jeg kommer til at savne Kirsten som formand.

Kirsten has been mentoring me unofficially since my PhD days. She sees the best in people even when they don't see it themselves. She has inspired me, instilled confidence in my own abilities and has encouraged me to push my own boundaries. She is a good leader, the kind that does not micro-manage but the kind that points out towards the right direction and allows you to create your own path.
