Never underestimate the power of a woman. Delicate and compassionate, a woman surely is but that should never be mistaken as weakness or incapability. They are capable of being diverse. Initially, the best professions considered for women were teaching or medicine but times have changed. Women all around the world are playing their part not only in the nurturing of nations, but also in the development of several businesses. One such example of a high woman achiever is Shehnaz Ramzi of Starlinks Company, based in Pakistan.

Recently, the company was named as a finalist in the ‘Company/Organization Awards’ category at the 14th Annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business and received a bronze Stevie Award in its gala event at Marriott Marquis Hotel, New York. More than 1,500 entries were submitted this year for consideration in more than 90 categories, including Executive of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, Company of the Year, Start-up of the Year, Women Helping Women and Women Run Workplace of the Year.

The event management company had been declared a finalist in the ‘Start-up of the year- Business Service Industries’ category. Stevie Awards competitions receive more than 10,000 entries each year from organizations in more than 60 nations. Honouring organizations of all types and sizes and the people behind them, the Stevies recognize outstanding performances in the workplace worldwide.

The award gala was attended by nominees who were women executives and entrepreneurs from the USA and several other countries. The finalists were chosen by more than 170 professionals serving on five specialized judging committees worldwide. The event was streamed live from the venue and appeared to be a success. Congratulations to the winners and women in power!
