recognize initiatives that create positive business results for organizations.
ince
1991, the Optimas Awards have been a source of ideas, direction and
inspiration for workforce management professionals. The awards celebrate the winners’
success at solving some of the biggest business challenges of our time.
Demonstrated Business Results
Optimas Award winners have helped open new markets around the world,
reinvented city government, slashed bureaucracy in the federal government,
established Mexico's first HMO, taken health care to rural America, revitalized
failing business units and improved the acquisition process.
Not surprisingly, Optimas Award winners have pushed their
organizations to record profits, greater market share, higher stock value and
better corporate reputations. In short, they have produced tangible, measurable
business results.
Results-Oriented Workforce Management Is Practiced Everywhere
The Optimas Award winners prove that astute workforce management can be
practiced anywhere: in family businesses and the public sector, in the Fortune
500 and in small organizations, in big cities and on the farm, in industries of
every sort.
Optimas Award winners are "among the best" (which is what optimas
means in Latin) and reflect the leadership, vision and energy that define
workforce management.
How to Submit Your Nomination
Nominations are now being accepted for the 2008 Optimas Awards. Please
