Businessman and Businesswoman of the Year Award

In this new era, a new type of business leader has emerged: pioneers who are more radical in their thinking and individuals who are not afraid to go against the norm. Not only do these new leaders uphold principled guidance, laser sharp focus, unique strategic thinking, balanced workplace values and an unrelenting pursuit of excellence, but they bring with them a fresh perspective with the ability for action rooted in the now.

  • This includes (but is not limited to): General Managers, Chief Executives, Group Directors, Managing Directors, Divisional Heads or Presidents & Vice Presidents
  • Nominees may be employed in either the public or private sectors
