Merseyside Women Making a Difference Award

Driving Instructor wins a business award - 2008

The Women In Business (NW) Awards now in it’s second year are organised
by the Women In Business Network.  The awards are given in support of
women and to encourage female entrepreneurship. As women are half as
likely as men to be running a business, and as a women’s network we aim to
change this within the North West.  

They do this by encouraging women to invest time, money or energy in
supporting each other and to be able to maximise the opportunity to network in
a supportive business environment.   This was the case when the finalists were
nominated as they have been recognised as women that have helped others
within the Network with either encouragement or as a realistic role model that
help other realise that “they can do it” too.

Kathy Higgins of Insight 2 Drive has been an asset to the network since she
joined and this was recognised by her nominations and being the Winner of
the Best Woman in Business sponsored by Business Link Northwest.  

Kathy said, “I did not think I would win for one second, I was shocked when my
name was called out, I am actively involved in a lot of organizations and I
always give my best.  I enjoy helping other people and often give up my time
free to do this. I count myself very fortunate to be earning a living doing
something I really enjoy,  and people I train with often comment that they can
tell this is so.  I am also very proud of Insight 2 Drive and I am always here for
my instructors I encourage them in CPD, personal development and much
more. They are a great team.  I do have a dream of unity in our industry this is
why I am a member of most of them!

Kathy also encourages other new business women and uses her knowledge to
mentor them to overcome problems with real life solutions.   Business can be
tough especially in a very male dominated arena and Kathy is in.   She has
taken on a campaign to help others be wiser when using other less reputable
services and has spent her own time and money producing an information
leaflet to create an awareness of illegal driving instructors.   

She is always extremely encouraging to others and “gives back” at any
opportunity; Kathy is a great ambassador for women in business everywhere.  
Women in Business are very proud that Kathy is part of their network
