CR Magazine’s Responsible CEO of the Year

Each year since 2008, CR Magazine has awarded the prestigious Responsible CEO of the Year Award, presented to CEOs — from companies, NGOs, and governments — who, during the previous year, put themselves at personal and professional risk in order to deliver on corporate responsibility promises.

In 2011, CR Magazine announced the addition of the Corporate Responsibility Lifetime Achievement Award to recognize an individual whose risk-taking, vision and pioneering spirit have led to significant achievement in the Corporate Responsibility field over the course of their career. In 2013, we’ve added 3 new awards – Responsible Chief Financial Officers (CFO), Chief Human Resource Officers (CHRO) and Executives in the Public Sector.  All award winners are nominated by fellow members of the CR community and selected by an independent panel of judges composed of previous winners and other recognized leaders.

Award recipients are honored at CR Magazine’s Responsible CEO of the Year Awards Dinner during the COMMIT!Forum each year.

Award nominations open May 10 and close July 1 – the online nominations form is made available on the COMMIT!Forum website along with Information on Nominations and Evaluation Criteria.
