twenty-four hours in the life of Jodie Lawson

A Her day begins at 7.15 when the alarm goes off. But she doesn’t often get up straight
away. She lies in bed and listens to the news on the radio. She usually goes to work
by bus, but she sometimes runs.

B She leaves work around seven, but quite often goes to an evening meeting. To relax
she likes to see 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 the managing director of

roundpegsquare.com, an Internet-based recruitment agency.

D Her morning always involves meetings, taking calls from clients and dealing with
emails. Most days, she has lunch at her desk, but sometimes she goes out with a
client, or makes a lunchtime presentation. In the afternoon she is usually out of the
office visiting clients.

E She likes running and finds it relaxing. It takes her about 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 emails and has breakfast – a bowl of cereal.
