50 Most Powerful Jamaican Women in Business for 2012
BUSINESSUITE Magazines Annual ranking of Jamaica’s Leading Businesswomen
A woman of power: she is ambitious, a risk-taker, driven, determined, creative, a confident leader; she is unafraid to allow her passions to order her steps, or her gifts and talents to become her own personal calling card. Across Jamaica, there are powerful women in all sectors, so picking the 50 most powerful is a daunting task to say the least.
How we pick the Power 50
The list is compiled by BUSINESSUITE Magazine based on an established format created by FORTUNE editors, who consider four criteria:
- The size and importance of the woman’s business in the Jamaican economy,
- The health and direction of the business,
- The arc of the woman’s career,
- Societal and cultural influence.
Note however that Businessuite was not privy to financial statements from the various companies mentioned, and as such this was not factored into our listing and placements. Readers are therefore free to debate and discuss the names and placement of individuals. However, applying the criteria listed above, BUSINESSUITE Magazine’s list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business for 2012 are:
