Voter’s profile

6. CEO OF THE YEAR
It is about the exclusive “X Factor” in leadership
It can certainly be valuable to have the help of strategy officers or
teams on refining and implementing a strategy, but the strategy itself
needs to be conceived and owned by the CEO (or equivalent for a
division). Otherwise, a strategy often becomes a diffuse product of
group thinking and compromises among multiple stakeholders in the
organization. Here this time we are recognizing individuals who have
provided ideas, strategies and tactics for top executive leaders seeking
to build more effective organizations.
A significant body of management research has demonstrated that
some of the highest risks to business can be attributed to the failure to
find the right leaders with the right stuff and put them in the right roles.
Part of hiring a right CEO is finding someone with that leadership “X
Factor”, a quality that is hard to define, but is essential to success.

7. Organization in improving
Marketing skills
Organizations Must Upgrade Skills and Processes to Meet B2B Technology Buyer
Expectations.
Ability to connect with customers in new and meaningful ways, in which business-to-

at their go-to-market and sales models to ensure they are providing the necessary
value in the buying process.
