Basseterre, St.Kitts (March 8th 2019):- Today March 8th is celebrated worldwide as International Women’s Day. It is a day designated by the United NATIONS to celebrate the accomplishments of women and to promote the development of women internationally. In recognition of the day the  SKN Times (skntimesonline.com/timescaribbeanonline.com) has once again released it’s St.Kitts-Nevis 40 Most Influential and Powerful Women’s list. The perennial list   is the publication’s commitment to compiling and highlighting   St.Kitts-Nevis’ 40 most powerful and influential women.  The Listing was first done in 2011. The compilations of women listed are   not only based on celebrity or popularity but also and more significantly influence and power. Power usually equates to influence thus some persons listed may not be popular names but are influential solely based on their position.

The list comprises politicians, bankers, entertainment personalities, radio announcers, business executives, CEO’s, entrepreneurs, Senior Civil Servants, Attorneys, Promoters and more.

Some are well known , some you may never have heard of. But their power and influence has in some way shaped the lives of many whether directly or indirectly.  .

Many of the women on the list are groundbreakers in their respective field. These are the Kittitian and Nevisian women history will remember. More importantly, they’re the women who inspire the rest of us to become better people.

The 2019 List sees a slightly  new look with some  new faces entering the list and being featured. This no doubt reflects the tremendous strides and development of women which we have seen over the last few years.

The list was selected by a panel of professionals including a lawyer, business executive, educator, entrepreneur in addition to the Editors at the SKNTimesonline.com. No ranking system was instituted in the listing. Therefore the list is in no particular order:
