Circle of Excellence Award

The Circle of Excellence Award honors individuals who consistently demonstrate excellence in both their personal and professional lives while embodying the core values of CREW Network. These honorees stand out at any career stage through their passion for our industry and innovative approaches to their work. They inspire others with their leadership and vision, and they believe our industry grows stronger when everyone has a voice at the table. Circle of Excellence recipients actively seek opportunities to bring women and minorities into the conversation and champion their advancement.

The nominee may be of any gender and currently working, retired or deceased. There may be multiple inductees into the Circle of Excellence each year, or there may be no selections in a given year, depending on the number of quality applications received. On rare occasions, this award has been given to an organization that stands out with their continuous sponsorships of CREW and were proponents of women and diversity.
