The CareerFOCUS Eagle Award is one of corporate America's highest accolades in executive leadership achievement. Honorees exemplify the Eagle's embodiment of dignity, integrity, and honor.

The Eagle Award was launched in 1993 by CareerFOCUS Magazine —The Magazine Leaders Read—to recognize outstanding leadership within the trenches of corporate America. Recipients mirror the magazine's readership, which targets Black/African-American and Hispanic/Latino professionals who practice a higher standard of leadership. Today, the Eagle Awards are presented by the National Eagle Leadership Institute (NELI). CareerFOCUS maintains naming rights and is NELI's primary media partner-profiling the honorees each year.

NELI will award the winners at the 17th annual red-carpet CareerFOCUS Eagle Awards Gala on Thursday, November 19, 2009, at The Fairmont Chicago at Millennium Park.

Submit your nomination form by June 10, 2009.
