Nominations

The Contingency Planning & Management Group are soliciting nominations for CPM Hall of Fame inductees for 2008. Inductees named into the Hall of Fame will join the ranks of professionals and organizations that have shaped and are shaping the discipline of business continuity planning.

As a member of the CPM audience, you are invited to nominate those individuals and organizations you believe exemplify contingency planning excellence. You may nominate practitioners from within your own company or organization, but you may not nominate your employer in the Vendor category, and you may not nominate yourself in any category.

When selecting your nominee(s), please consider their contribution to the business continuity profession. What have they done that has furthered the profession? How are their accomplishments unique and significant? We encourage you to provide as much supporting information for your nominees, such as your rationale for naming them, letter(s) of recommendation, résumé material, and biographical sketches (see Nomination Form below).

The four nominee categories are:

  • Practitioner Category -- individuals who direct, implement, and/or develop business continuity planning strategies or programs and have distinguished themselves as exemplary planners
  • Vendor Practitioner Category -- individuals who are employed by business continuity product or service providers and who have made outstanding contributions to the business continuity planning field
  • Vendor Category -- companies and organizations that have made outstanding contributions to the business continuity planning field
  • Public Servant Category -- individuals from the public sector who have made significant contributions to emergency response and crisis management, enabling businesses and their workers to resume operations after disasters or major disruptions

CPM will select the finalists from the field of nominees, and the CPM Hall of Fame Panel of Judges will determine the inductees (click here for more information on the voting process). Two new inductees will be announced at CPM 2008 EAST.
