Jodie Lawson, Young Businessperson of the Year

B She leaves work around seven, but quite often goes to an evening meeting. To relax she likes seeing her friends and family, and enjoys going away at the weekend and getting out of the city. She goes to bed between 11 and midnight.
C Jodie Lawson, Young Businessperson of the Year, is managing director of roundpeg.com, an internet-based recruitment agency.

E She likes running and finds it relaxing. It takes her about 30 to 35 minutes to get to work – about the same as the bus. When she gets to the office, she turns on the computer, reads her e-mail, and has breakfast – a bowl of cereal.

She gets them from customers, but also from suppliers about orders and deliveries. On a normal day she can get over five hundred calls.

She wants to disconnect the phone, but her husband needs it for his work.
