The curse of the award strikes again...

Just five weeks ago, Maryam Sharaf - group chief operating officer and chief financial officer of stricken Dubai World (motto: "the sun never sets on Dubai World") - was cheerfully accepting the “Leading Woman CFO” Award, instituted by the Women in Leadership Forum.
“Financial management of Dubai World is a team effort," she gushed back then. "I regard this award as welcome recognition of the work my finance team and the management of Dubai World have undertaken.”
Too modest!
