Top Emerging Leaders
The future belongs to the next generation and our focus is to recognize those who will lead them. These emerging leaders will face challenges from problems we have yet to imagine. They are more than just influencers. They are fearless, insightful, globally minded, pioneering and unrelenting with idealism. They lead in obscurity with intention, agility, inclusiveness and collaboration in complex, dynamic environments in ways unlike any previous generation before them. They stand ready in the wings at organizations across every industry and they deserve our support, our investment and our recognition. So, with a distinction that matches their hopeful exuberance, we celebrate these individuals with The Top Emerging Leaders Award.
