Ruth’s A Winner!
Labyrinth MD Ruth Waring has won the Women on their Way (WOW) award for woman in a non-traditional role. Ruth was presented with the prestigious award recently at a glittering awards ceremony at the Botanical Gardens in Birmingham.
Says Ruth: “I am delighted. I went along to the awards to enjoy the day, but to win was just incredible. It’s hard to see what you do on a daily basis as exceptional, and most of the time I’m too busy getting on with it all to even think about its significance. It’s great to take a step back and reflect on what I have achieved.
“I think there were two reasons why I won, the first being the great success of Labyrinth during 2008, where we had 3 major blue-chip projects as well as the ongoing customers who are so important to us. But also in September last year I set up Women in Logistics UK, which now has 275 members and is growing daily. The group is free to join and is run on a voluntary basis. So I think the combination of those two factors was significant. I was certainly up against some stiff competition.”
The WOW awards are the brainchild of Jo Cameron, who found fame appearing in The Apprentice. Jo created the WOW awards to help fulfil her vision, to increase the number of women at higher levels at work and in business.

Ruth won a beautiful glass award (see photo), champagne, flowers and a free half day of massage sessions which she has shared with the steering team of Women in Logistics UK.
