The CareerFOCUS Eagle Award is a symbol of leadership achievement for African-American and Hispanic/Latino executives. Honorees embody the Eagle's model of dignity, integrity, and honor, and their records of performance inspire others to achieve greater levels of business and community leadership.

The Eagle Award was launched in 1993 by CareerFOCUS Magazine, "The Magazine for Today's Professional Lifestyles," to recognize outstanding leadership brewing in the trenches of corporate America. Eagle Award recipients mirror the magazine's distribution, which targets African-American (70%) and Latino (30%) professionals who practice principled leadership in business and community endeavors. Today, the Eagle Awards are presented by the National Eagle Leadership Institute. CareerFOCUS maintains naming rights and is NELI's primary media partner — profiling the honorees each year.

The 16th Annual CareerFOCUS Eagle Awards Gala is Friday, November 14, 2008, at the Westin Michigan Avenue Hotel in Chicago Illinois. We welcome your nomination for this year's class.

The nomination deadline is June 10, 2008.
