Leaders Portfolio with Dr. Rebecca Blacksmith, which airs on Washington DC’s WTNT talk radio, has just announced that INNOVIM President Dr. Shahin Samadi is among the winners of the 2011 Leaders Portfolio Awards. The prestigious awards were designed to identify and reward business leaders.
See press release...
Dr. Samadi is a co-winner of the award for Business Leader of the Year (1-50 employees) along with the president of iDirect Government Technologies, John Ratigan.
Leaders Portfolio characterizes the award in the following way:
A very public corporate ethics crisis among select businesses, in addition to, a lack of leadership by certain business leaders were a few of the driving factors in creating a global financial crisis. But clearly all leaders and businesses do not operate like the ones that drove us into the crisis. The Leaders Portfolio Awards offer opportunities for businesses and business leaders to publicly state that they are committed to operating within a framework of leadership and ethics.
At a time when clients, colleagues, and business partners are scrutinizing the businesses and business leaders around them, The Leaders Portfolio Awards couldn't have been launched at a more opportune time! The Leaders Portfolio Awards debuted last year with leadership entries representing one-employee start-ups to 600 employee companies, as well as, leaders representing a full range of business sectors.
