Our industry is full of great leaders; those who help their organizations thrive despite the many challenges we face today. Have you seen one in action? TAPPI‘s PIMA Management Division would like to help you to recognize them. PIMA has several awards that provide public recognition for star performers who have made significant contributions to their organization or the industry.
Roger Smith, of Domtar and PIMA Executive Council Chair is one of those leaders. "In 2008 I received the Brookshire Moore Superintendent of the Year award, one of the greatest honors of my career," says Roger. "I was nominated by a mill team that worked through some of the most challenging years in the development of a paper machine. Being nominated by those I led and worked with was the greatest honor but the industry recognition was fulfilling also."
Awards are available for community service, technology, superintendant of the year, mill manager of the year and students. For an overview and nomination form, follow this link. Deadline is November 30. PIMA awards will be presented at PaperCon 2012 in New Orleans next April.
In addition, TAPPI offers a myriad of other awards for stars in the industry, including division level awards for technical and leadership achievements, TAPPI Fellow for longstanding accomplishment and dedication and TAPPI Association level awards for the highest achievement or service to the industry.
