Prague, Nov 5 (CTK) – Prague High State Attorney Lenka Bradacova is the woman who influences the Czech scene most of all, followed by PPF financial director Katerina Jiraskova and Agrofert financial director Petra Prochazkova, according to a list completed by the Czech-language version of Forbes magazine.

Businesswomen prevail on the first ten positions, which include only two politicians.

“Bradacova leads the list owing to her steps, hard work, consistence, firmness, determination and courage with which she tirelessly deals with the biggest Czech cases involving the interconnection of top-level business, politics, lobbying and hundreds of millions or rather billions of crowns,” the authors of the list write.

Everyone whom Forbes consulted on the list, agreed on Bradacova being the most influential woman, they write.

One of the two politicians who ended among the first ten positions is EU commissioner Vera Jourova, who ended fourth, compared to her second place last year.

The other is Prague Mayor Adriana Krnacova (ANO) who finished third.

When completing the list, the authors applied the methodology used by the U.S. Forbes magazine. Together with experts, they monitored about 300 women from various branches all the year long.

“We assessed everything and based on several different criteria,” the authors write.

In the case of female owners and managers, they enquired into their economic resuls, revenues, profits and acquisitins.

In the case of women working in the non-profit sector, the experts monitored the sums the relevant foundations distributed, and in the case of politicians they assessed their powers and the financial sums and number of people their decision can influence.
