PURPOSE: Some say legacy is not leaving something for people,
it’s leaving something in people. The newly created Circle of Honor Legacy Award was established to acknowledge dedicated executives
who embody humility and inspire others as servant leaders. The award will be presented annually to individuals in recognition of their passion, influence, and leadership.
CRITERIA: To qualify for this award, the individual must demonstrate the following:
Transformational and visionary leader
Leads by example and adopts the philosophy of a servant leader
Embraces change and a willingness to challenge the status quo for the overall good of the business and the community at large
Supports projects in the community, nationally and internationally that provide opportunities for underrepresented minorities
Creates a diverse and inclusive business environment where passion, mutual respect, and cultural sensitivity are encouraged and valued
Acts with humility and compassion and inspires future leaders to give back in ways that are impactful and socially responsible
