The SearchCIO-Midmarket.com 2012 IT Leadership Awards recognize the midmarket's innovative CIOs. We received 350 qualified nominations, which we whittled down to 40 semifinalists. Then our distinguished panel of CIO and former CIO judges scored each semi-finalist on a scale of 1-10 for cultural innovation, technological advancement, business harmonization, green IT and customer experience.
All finalists receive certificates honoring their contributions, as well as VIP invitations to IT insider networking and leadership events throughout the country. The winners of the Cultural Innovation, Technological Advancement, Business Harmonization, Green IT and Customer Experience/Integration awards each receive a $150 American Express gift card as well as an elegant engraved glass trophy. From these nominations, our judges also pushed forward the professionals they felt displayed the most innovative leadership to receive the overall IT Leader of the Year award. The winner of the SearchCIO-Midmarket.com 2012 IT Leader of the Year award receives both a trophy and an iPad.
Please join us in congratulating these professionals who are demonstrating innovative leadership in the midmarket IT space.
