Lynette Armstrong's levers of influence to consolidate Debswana's diamond business
Having suddenly found herself at the helm of Debswana in 2019 following the premature death of her predecessor, Lynette Armstrong has been running Botswana's leading diamond producer in an acting capacity. With the appointment of a permanent managing director pending, she has been activating her networks as well as renegotiating the contract to sell the company's diamonds with its two shareholders, the Botswanan state and De Beers.
