What is the secret of her success? She has always been ambitious. After school she took a summer job with IBM and stayed for fourteen years. “I then knew I wanted to run a company by the age of thirty-five and after that to have a company worth £ 0.5 billion by 2002.” Another reason is her husband, Geoff, who works part-time for the company and part-time at home looking after their two children. He took early retirement from IBM, which allowed Nikki to concentrate on her career. She doesn’t work at weekends and she takes all her holidays. Her employees can work from home if they want to and she allows them time off for their families when necessary. “I see someone’s career as a long journey. We are long-term employers,” she said, after receiving her prize from the sponsors Vueve Cliquot. These are very strong, old-fashioned values from someone at the head of such a modern, high-tech company.
