NEW ROCCO IOO JUDGE ANNOUNCED – VICKY SLEIGHT, CHIEF PERFECT OFFICER THE PERFECT LIMITED
By Jason Bryan CEO, ROCCO Research
As you maybe aware in October 2019 ROCCO started the ROCCO 100 initiative to identify the 100 most influential people in Roaming and Interconnect. The response to the research project has been tremendous, with over 1000 votes with detailed responses of why the nominated people have been voted have been provided by voters from all parts of the world. We are expecting many more votes in the coming weeks until the voting closes at the end of February 2020. Read more about ROCCO 100 here.
As documented in our methodology, ROCCO will be analysing the data based on three factors, 1) the number of votes, 2) the characteristics score and 3) the reasons why the nominated people are considered to be influential which have been provided by each voter. This 3rd part of the score which is very subjective, will be judged independently by a panel of judges we have invited to help us with this project.
Today we are very honoured and pleased to announce our second ROCCO 100 judge Vicky Sleight, Chief Perfect Officer, The Perfect Ltd. With her wealth of experience, I can’t think of anyone better to judge this important research.
