Nominate for the SHINE Awards 2006 for womens's achievement

Women represent over 60% of the workforce in the UK yet their success, professionalism and contribution has largely remained unsung. At the heart of The SHINE Awards is a deep awareness that personal and professional development is crucial to the long-term wealth of this industry and that women have many of the leadership skills essential to the success of companies and teams in the 21st Century.
The SHINE Awards recognise and celebrate the accomplishments of women in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry. Now is the time for women to be rewarded for the fantastic job that they do.

There are six categories for women at all levels in the industry to enter. All categories recognise individual effort and outstanding achievements by women working in both the public and private sectors:


Business Owner of the Year Award
Open to owners with a 50 per cent minimum share in a business with responsibility for key decision-making.


Business Woman of the Year Award
