Remember to Nominate an Extraordinary Mentor or Superstar Peer for the 2016 CIC Awards!
"CIC's Hall of Leaders has honored outstanding leaders and innovators for over three decades. The inductees' contributions have shaped the industry on a global scale and their efforts continue to inspire and improve it," said CIC CEO Karen Kotowski, CAE, CMP. "On the heels of a dazzling and reinvented 2016 Hall of Leaders Celebration, held during IMEX America in Las Vegas, CIC is now looking for the next class of forward-thinkers and risk-takers."
As a natural extension of the Hall of Leaders, the Pacesetter Awards recognize emerging leaders and industry supporters in "real time," rather than over a lifetime. Recipients of The Pacesetter Awards are among those whose recent accomplishments speak highly of where the industry is today and chart a course for where it is headed. Since its inception in 2012, CIC has honored 15 emerging leaders with this award. Measuring individual excellence, the Pacesetter Award has three focus areas: Young Professionals, Sustainability and Social Responsibility, and Leadership and Innovation.
Honor your mentors and peers and celebrate their success. Which extraordinary leader from our industry has inspired you?
