2009 Veuve Clicquot Business Woman Award
The winner of the 2009 Veuve Clicquot Business Woman is "Mandy Foley-Quin Chief Executive Officer, Stedmans Hospitality - Mandy Foley-Quin is the CEO of Stedmans Hospitality, a leading hospitality and staffing agency which she helped found in 1986 and now owns. The business was built around a unique idea, a one-stop shop assuming all responsibility for staff, superannuation and payroll for hospitality personnel on behalf of its clients. It revolutionized the hospitality industry and is now the model for many other similar businesses. Stedmans employs over 1,500 casuals annually, and Mandy is passionate about training young people. Her leadership has taken Stedmans offshore; Mandy and her team have worked with the Olympic Games in Sydney, Athens, Torino and Beijing. The business continues to evolve in new directions with a division set up to service the payroll needs of the film and television industry and the recent establishment of a theatrical management agency."
It's sad that the only place I could find this was in the Wentworth Courier. She's not a geek but I like anything that celebrates awesome women.
