This month we've celebrated members having global impact and success at the Global Chamber® 2023 Global Innovation & Excellence Awards, "The Global 50"! Congratulations!!
Every member of Global Chamber® is extraordinary! And so we recognized extra-extraordinary global leaders. Every day we chat with members across 525 chapters, and this month we held five rapid-fire celebrations recognizing remarkable leaders with amazing stories... to learn from, and be inspired by. The process to select the winners was to identify not only those with significant accomplishments, but also market leaders and trend setters with global business, blazing new, global trails.
The award winners each demonstrate global innovation and excellence, with capabilities, passion, growth, success, innovation, resilience, community leadership and impact.
Missed them? We had 5 incredible sessions: Session 1 with Dr. Khagram of Thunderbird, Session 2 with Tony Nasharr of Polsinelli, Session 3 with Catherine O'Connell and Session 4 with Dr. Sarita Jackson of GRIIT.... all on youtube. And the fifth session was on Linkedin audio... not recorded.
Watch for the Global Chamber® team awards in May.
Congratulations and thank you 2023 awardees!
