As a PR and Marketing Person - Yasmine's got an amazing combination of charm and tenacity which enables her to pursue her goal of promoting her company dead on with a great smile to cap it off - something very difficult for a person in the media to say "no" to, or get away from, for that matter :) Her creativity on the other hand to activate innovative projects for the Renaissance and pull it off with significant revenue contributions has put her on a level above just being "another PR person" to a serious and important player within the hotel's management team. Someone capable of doing even bigger things in the future. Good luck to Yasmine.

I've known Yasmine for many years now, since she was starting her PR career in Manila. She is truly a hardworking person who manages to keep a sunny disposition always. She is very professional, too, and I am amazed at how she manages to put people at ease even when they meet her for the first time.

Vibrant, dynamic, persistent, determined, dedicated and a lady of boundless energy...Yasmine is all that and more. I was Yasmine's supervisor for a couple of years at Sofitel Philippine Plaza and she has proven to be indispensible to the PR department with the tremendous amount of media mileage she has garnered because of her wide network of media contacts, not to mention her good relations with the press. She is very passionate with what she does and it brings out the best of her capabilities. It is no surprise that she is making waves in Dubai and is a contender for this award. I'm so proud of Yasmine and I wish her all the best!

I would like to show my support for Corryanne. When she still worked in my team Corryanne always showed her dedication to serve customers best and she is really creative and determined to take the extra step. I do hope Corryanne will be honoured with this award.
