From the Queen to George Clooney’s wife Amal Alamuddin to Boris’ executive assistant – women from all walks of life have made it to GQ’s list of the 100 most connected women in Britain.
The categories for the list included “connector”, “influencer”, “campaigner & change agent”, “creative collaborator”,“spider” and “leader”.
Dylan Jones, editor of GQ, said: “This is a compelling review of women from different disciplines and generations each triumphing today: It may still be a man’s world but where would we be without women to lead us through it?
“I like the sheer variety this list has: Amal Alamuddin and HRH Queen Elizabeth II rank equally alongside Rebekah Brooks and Doreen Lawrence.”
