You will be meeting 8 shipping business women who attended the Women's International Shipping and Trading Association, WISTA International AGM & Conference in Istanbul, Turkey October, 7-10, 2015. In this episode you will meet Teresa Peacock, Managing Director, Spinnaker Global, Shipping Recruitment. She came into the shipping industry 7 years ago and was amazed by the size of the industry and how everyone takes it for granted without even knowing about it. We touch upon the subject of the lack of women in the industry and what impact that might have. Teresa is a member of the Board of WISTA UK, the National WISTA Association where it all started in 1974.
