This is one of the most hotly contested and highly prized awards. For a company's leader to win it, he or she needs to have consistently demonstrated the kind of clear vision, judgment, and motivational skills that transform and empower organizations. The winner will be a leader who is highly respected by both peers and competitors, admired and followed by employees, trusted by investors, and welcomed by the community.
This is not an award for organizational effectiveness, or for revenue and profits growth–though without those qualifications, entrants would barely be on the starting grid. It is for recognition of courage, dedication, ethics, and the ability to bring about real change for the better at a company level, in the industry as a whole, and in the lives of employees.
Judges will consider a CEO's entire track record, with particular attention focused on that individual's accomplishments since January 2008.
