WESTPORT, Conn., Dec. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  HMG Strategy, the World’s #1 digital platform for enabling technology executives to reimagine the enterprise and reshape the business world, is excited to announce the top executives nominated to its 2023 Global Leadership Institute Awards (GLIA) program. Since the inception of its Transformational CIO Awards in 2012, HMG Strategy has been recognizing the industry’s premier technology executives who are making a difference in their organizations through the industry’s most distinguished and recognizable global leadership awards program. In 2020, HMG Strategy introduced the Global Technology Executives Who Matter Awards to recognize the top-performing Chief Information Officers, Chief Information Security Officers, Senior Technology Leaders, Venture Capitalists and Search Executives who have demonstrated unparalleled leadership in areas such as Innovation, Business Transformation and Digital Disruption. Now entering its 14th year of recognizing the exceptional contributions of technology executives, HMG Strategy extended its recognition program beginning in 2021 to honor exemplary technology leaders and their teams who are making outstanding contributions to their organizations. “The 2023 Global Leadership Institute Awards recognize top-tier technology executives for their courageous, empathetic and inclusive leadership in the face of a global health crisis and turbulent socio-economic challenges,” said Hunter Muller, Founder and CEO of HMG Strategy. “Unlike other pay-to-play awards models, these dynamic global technology executives are being recognized for their extraordinary leadership in helping to foster a culture of trust, to drive innovation, to reimagine the business and develop new go-to-market strategies with fellow members of the C-suite and line of business in incredibly challenging times. The 2023 Global Leadership Institute recognition model will cascade throughout the agendas for our Executive Leadership Summits.” World-class global technology executives nominated for HMG Strategy’s 2023 Global Leadership Institute Awards include: RootaAlmeidaHead of Security Governance, Amazon StoresBhavaniAmirthalingamSVP, Chief Digital & Information Officer, AmerenJudithApshagoVice President, Information Technology, AmtrakChrisBediChief Digital and Information Officer, ServiceNowPatrickBenoitGlobal Chief Information Security Officer, Brink'sNellsonBurnsCo-Owner, Destination ITJoeCarrollCIO, CITGOStefanieCauseyOCM Leader, Enterprise Operations & Services Quote-to -Cash Transformation, IBMMamathaChamarthiGlobal SVP of Software Business and Product Management P&L, StellantisMaxChanCIO, AvnetBrookColangeloVP & CIO, WatersJayFerroEVP, Chief Information & Technology Officer, ClarioUrsFoleyBoard Member, Provident Bank, Greenlight ReMichaelGolzSVP, Head of Customer Advisory North America, SAPKenGradySVP & CIO, IDEXX LaboratoriesChuckGrayPartner, Egon ZehnderJeffGraysonFormer Chief Digital and Technology Officer, Orangetheory FitnessRoccoGrilloManaging Director - Global Cyber Risk Services & Incident Response Investigation, Alvarez & MarsalAnjanaHarveSVP & CIO, Fresenius Medical CareJamieHeadChief Digital & Technology Officer, Ocean SprayArtHopkinsGlobal Co-Leader of Technology Officers Practice, Russell Reynolds AssociatesJenniferHopperCIO, Save-A-LotSteveHoytExecutive Director Information Technology Aspen NeuroscienceBipinJayarajVP, CIO, Rogers CorporationDaphneJonesBoard Member; Founder, The Board CuratorsStephenKatsirubasCIO, Hunter DouglasStuartKippelmanCIO & Commercial Cybersecurity Business Leader Parsons CorporationDilipKrishnaManaging Director, DeloitteNaveenKumarPartner, Amrop RosinMatthewLaganaManaging Director, CTO & CISO, MBIAKinLee-YowCIO, CAA Club Group of CompaniesSeanLennonRetired CIO, MedtronicTalvisLoveSVP & CIO, Baxter InternationalDavidMahonGlobal CISO, Deloitte GlobalJoelManfredoCIO, Motion Picture Industry Pension & Health PlansQuintinMcGrathBoard and Advisory Council MemberAndreMendesCIO, U.S. Department of CommerceHarryMoseleyCIO Advisor, ZoomBarbMunroCo-Founder, Partner, The Carrera AgencyDebMuroCIO, El Camino HealthLisaNicholsCEO, Technology PartnersGregNicholsPresident, COO, Technology PartnersHelenNorrisVP, CIO, Chapman UniversityGauthamPallapaSenior Executive Advisor & CIO/CDO (App Modernization, Digital Transformation & Hybrid Cloud), VMwareJimPanosCIO, Central National GottesmanRustyPatelSVP & CIO, TennecoTomPeckEVP, Chief Information and Digital Officer, SyscoMichaelPiacenteCo-Founder and Managing Director, Hitch PartnersSanjibSahooExecutive Vice President and Global Chief Digital Officer, Ingram MicroTrevorSchulzeCIO, AlteryxKiranSekhriChief Innovation Officer, WCCCDMarcusSessionVP of IT Services, Tampa International AirportJanetSherlockChief Digital & Technology Officer, Ralph LaurenKenSpanglerExecutive Vice President IT - CIO Global OpCo Technologies: Express, Ground, Freight, Logistics, FedExCynthiaStoddardSVP & CIO, AdobeDeeThibodeauCEO, Charter SolutionsJasonTorrezSr. Director, Digital Workplace Technologies, GE AviationClifTriplettExecutive Director, KEARNEYBillVanCurenExecutive Vice President & CIO, NCR Corp.GaryVonderHaarEVP, Operations & Technology Processing, MastercardEdwardWagonerCIO, Digital, JLLJenniferWesson-GreenmanCIO, Cancer Treatment Centers of AmericaAngelaYochemEVP Chief Transformation and Digital Officer, Novant Health Technology leaders being recognized by HMG Strategy under the 2023 Global Leadership Institute Awards are being cited in the following areas: Demonstrate Exceptional Leadership Which Drives Unique Innovation, Disruption, and/or Business ReinventionDiversity, Equity and InclusionLeading Into the C-SuiteCreating New Go-to-Market Business ModelsModernizing Enterprise ArchitectureBuilding a Culture of Trust New and expanded recognition categories for HMG Strategy’s 2023 Global Leadership Institute Awards include: CEO Legends: Partner CEOs whose vision has reshaped the technology industry or their industry segmentThe HMG Strategy Hall of Fame: World-class technology executives who have demonstrated high-caliber leadership, character and integrityHMG Strategy Industry Legends: Leaders whose contributions, leadership and innovation have had an indelible impact on the industryThe HMG Strategy Lifetime Achievement Award: Recognizes those leaders for their career accomplishments and industry contributionsHMG Global Thought Leadership Champions: Honors industry executives for the expertise shared with the HMG communityEmerging Leaders: Honors up-and-coming technology executives who are making a difference in their organizations To learn more about HMG Strategy’s 2022 Global Leadership Institute Awards and to nominate a deserving technology leader, click here or contact August Pelliccio, Managing Editor – Digital, at august.pelliccio@hmgstrategy.com.
