Nominations for Women in Business Awards close Tuesday

You’ve only got until 5 p.m. Tuesday to make your nominations for Business Report‘s 2012 Influential Women in Business Awards. To qualify for the honor, nominees must be business owners or top managers and must have a noticeable impact on their business or industry. Also, the business, industry or organization each nominee is affiliated with must fall into one of the following categories: retail/wholesale, health care, finance, professional, telecommunications/technology, manufacturing/industry, transportation, communications, nonprofits, government or education. Bear in mind that every nominee must have a clear vision for the future, which she has communicated to her staff and demonstrated. The women selected for this year’s awards will be profiled in the May 29 issue of Business Report and honored at a June 5 luncheon at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Additional details and ticket info for the luncheon will be announced as the event nears. Make your nominations online here; and see last year’s winners here.
