Your chance to recognise inspirational NZ global business leaders
Do you know an inspirational business leader who is helping to transform New Zealand's economy by growing internationally successful companies?
Nominations for two leadership categories in
the 2012 New Zealand International Business Awards are now
open and will close on Friday, August 19. Nomination forms
are available on the New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE)
website: www.nzte.govt.nz/awards
The Emerging International Business Leader and Outstanding International Business Leader awards are proudly sponsored by KPMG. Both awards provide an opportunity to recognise the people who are leading the businesses on which New Zealand's future economic success depends, says NZTE Chief Executive Peter Chrisp.
"New Zealand is not short of amazing people who share an ambition for a thriving economy but when it comes down to it, it's the leaders of our successfully internationalising businesses who are spearheading this charge. It's great to be able to provide an opportunity to recognise and share their efforts with the rest of New Zealand," Mr Chrisp says.
KPMG Executive Chairman, Ross Buckley, says the company is delighted to be supporting the two leadership awards and acknowledging the difference visionary business people are making to New Zealand. "Today's global business environment is fast-paced and challenging. We're looking for nominations of outstanding leaders who cut through the complexity of this environment and in doing so, achieve outstanding results in the world of international business. It is important that they are also willing to share the lessons they've learned along the way," Mr Buckley says.
The leadership awards are part of the New Zealand International Business Awards programme run by NZTE. Awards activity will culminate in a gala ceremony in March 2012 where finalists and winners get to take their place alongside other New Zealand business success stories.
