BOBBY WILLIAMS COMPETITIVE SPIRIT AWARD NOMINATION
This year we will continue to honor the legacy of our friend Bobby Williams with the Competitive Spirit Award. It has joined our popular team spirit awards and will be announced Tuesday evening before the results of the competition. The award will be presented to an individual who exemplifies Operations Challenge’s essential attributes of stewardship, discipline, and philanthropy. We are soliciting nominations, and they can be made by individuals or on behalf of teams. Any member of the Operations Challenge community is eligible – teammates, rivals, coaches, volunteers.
Someone has inspired you during your Operations Challenge experience – tell us who, and tell us why. Just a few sentences that explain the nominee’s role and their influence on your perspective or career. Nominations can be made prior to WEFTEC by sending a note to opschallenge@wef.org, and we will also have ballots available on site in New Orleans.
