<blockquote>
<p>&quot;A totally inspirational and uplifting day. There is nothing better than being surrounded by motivated professional like-minded superwomen who are fully charged to make a difference in their professions and environment.&quot; - Nadira Hussain&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>&quot;An inspirational, inclusive award day &ndash; with the loveliest of vibes, and the thread of social impact throughout.&quot; - Dr Claire Thorne&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>&quot;It was an amazing event, perfect host. Great venue. Delicious food and great company. To win was an absolute thank you.&quot; - Jane Kenyon&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>&quot;What an amazing and inspirational event today hosted by Novi. I was simply blown away by the talent in the room and it was a great privilege to be there. Taking away a key message to continue to build each other up, cast your net wider and put the ladder down for others to succeed. I was totally wowed by the truly motivational speech by Bonita Norris, the girl who climbed Everest to focus, not fret and to celebrate the small successes, take one step at a time and before you know it you&#39;ll climb that mountain.&quot; - Lucy Hodges&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>&quot;Although I didn&#39;t walk away with the award, I had an amazing time listening to inspirational talks including one from Emma Byrne on AI and gender bias. After meeting so many other women breaking barriers in their own industries, I&#39;ve been inspired to work harder and achieve more to break down barriers in the Highways industry.&quot;&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<p>&quot;Griselda Togobo, you have created something so special with Novi. A community that inspires, supports, encourages and learns from each other. I was nominated by the most fabulous Dr Leigh Hoath in 2019 AND I won. It gave me the confidence to make some bold moves in my career, and I have not looked back. Thank you! Nominate, nominate! Good luck.&quot; - Julianne Antrobus, CEO at @United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Transform Your Career with Professional Speaking Skills That Command Attention (and Premium Fees) - in Just 6 Weeks</h2>

<p><strong><strong>What if your next presentation could open doors to six-figure speaking opportunities?</strong></strong>Most professionals settle for &quot;good enough&quot; speaking skills. They deliver functional presentations, avoid the spotlight, and watch others get the recognition and opportunities they deserve.But imagine walking into any room with unshakeable confidence. Picture delivering keynotes that leave audiences mesmerised. Envision getting paid handsomely to share your expertise on stages around the world.<strong><strong>This transformation is exactly what happens in Professional Speaking Learning Labs.</strong></strong></p>

<p><a href="https://www.forwardladies.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Manchester-winners.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img fetchpriority="high" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-4291" src="https://www.forwardladies.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Manchester-winners-300x169.jpg" alt="" width="788" height="444" /></a></p>
<p>The esteemed National Awards were introduced eight years ago to acknowledge, reward and celebrate the exceptional work and female talent throughout the business community. This year, Forward Ladies continues to recognise and honour the most respected businesswomen, within a variety of industries.</p>
<p>Discussing her pride in the winners, Forward Ladies Managing Director Griselda Togobo said: “This has been a fantastic year for women, and through our National Awards we are once again delighted to be working in partnership with HSBC to showcase the very best women in business in the UK.</p>
<p>“The calibre of entries has been increasing year on year, but this year we had a number of outstanding entries and it was a wonderful afternoon of celebration and sharing their remarkable success. The standard of all our shortlisted entries was truly exceptional.”</p>
<p>Jennifer Crawley, Head of UK Performance for HSBC and Chief Awards judge said: “I am always impressed by such talented businesswomen who enter each year – and this year is no different. They play a significant part in the UK economy which is recognised by these awards. A very well done to all those who have joined us and provided such inspiration for other entrepreneurs through their ongoing achievements.”</p>
<p>The twelve category winners will now take part in a judging day in Manchester in November, before a distinguished panel of business leaders, where they will join finalists from regional events in Yorkshire, North East and Scotland; London and the South East; and the Midlands. The overall national winner will be announced at a grand finale to be held in Leeds on the 1<sup>st</sup> December.</p>
