Three all-new global fleet industry honors will be presented October 28 at the Global Fleet Management Conference in Miami. The three awards are:
The Global Fleet Icon Award, which recognizes fleet and procurement managers who have made significant contributions to their organizations and throughout the fleet industry by defining, achieving and continuing to move towards global fleet management success.
The Global Fleet Hall of Fame recognizes and awards deserving multinational fleet industry leaders for their hard work, dedication and success through the course of their career. These individuals effectively lead the global fleet challenge and share their industry knowledge, best practices and expertise.
Additionally, the 2021 Hall of Fame award recipients will also be designated founding members of the newly established Global Fleet Management Hall of Fame.
The Global Fleet Visionary award honor identifies a new or seasoned fleet manager who has sought to innovate and understand fleet from a global perspective within their organization. This individual has introduced new processes, technology and procedures that have improved safety or is the organization’s “Go-To” resource for best practices in global sourcing. The key word here is “innovation.”
The awards are exclusively sponsored by Polestar.
Global fleet industry members are encouraged to nominate themselves or another fleet leader in one of the three categories. Nomination submission deadline is August 13. Forms for each award are available at https://www.globalfleetmanagement.com/gfm-awards.
