Ten top executives from a variety of industries have been chosen by the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal to receive recognition through its inaugural C-Suite Awards.
The Business Journal launched the C-Suite Awards this year in order to celebrate the achievements of some of the area’s most accomplished, well-established leaders in business and nonprofit.
For the past 18 years, the Business Journal has honored rising stars in the professional world through its Forty Under 40 program, and it has recognized up-and-comers in their 20s through Fast 15 since 2011. The C-Suite Awards are open to C-level executives of all ages and are aimed toward influential men and women who have already made their mark, but continue to excel in their industries.
These standout leaders have earned the esteem of the peers, employees, friends and community members who nominated them.
Our staff selected honorees based on their top-tier professional accomplishments, effective leadership and contributions to the community. They will be honored at a luncheon on Oct. 13 at the 21C Museum Hotel in downtown Bentonville.
This year’s group includes eight chief executive officers, one chief operating officer and one chief information officer, and industries represented include finance, transportation, health care, nonprofit, venture capital and design.
Congratulations to this year’s honorees. You can read more about them here.
We hope to make the C-Suite Awards a long-running feature here at the Business Journal. Nominations for next year are open now at nwabusinessjournal.com.
