Delighted for the very kind shout out from iGamingBusiness in their Most Influential Women of 2024. Behind every successful woman is normally a team of equally expert men and women, who don’t necessarily want to be ‘at the front of house’. That is certainly true for me with my team at the Betting and Gaming Council as well as my support network through Global Gaming Women and my family, who help keep everything in perspective for me…. After a stressful day at work, it is fascinating to see how critical the time at which my 7 yr old and 5 yr old sons are allowed to eat their advent calendar is, to them! Huge congratulations also to Erica Okerberg who is a formidable and successful lawyer (who I have had the benefit of working with in a previous life) - and Purity W., who I don’t know yet, but hope to get to know soon! Sounds like there are more incredible awardees to come too 🙌🏻 #femaleleaders #BGC #GGW #iGB
