   Although Gina Quin graduated from UCD with a psychology degree in 1980, she has always been interested in the world of business, and returned toUCD to receive an MBA in 1989.

   "Howto influence decisionmaking and influencing colleagues is key to business. I firmly believe in competition,but teamwork is really essential too. It's all about shared goals and if everybody understands these goals and communicates well then a good team can accomplish much more than working individually," she said.
   
   The 46-year-old is proud of her Dublin upbringing and is keen to see the city thrive. "There has to be an environment for business, but Dublin also has to be an attractive place for employees to come to, and more importantly, to keep employees here," she said.

   She plays a little golf and generally enjoys being in the great outdoors.
