Subject: CALL FOR NOMINATIONS -
2016 WOMAN OF THE YEAR IN RESTRUCTURING
DEADLINE: October 29, 2016
IWIRC is once again looking for nominations for its 2016 Woman of the Year in Restructuring Award - which honors a woman for her recent contributions or lifetime achievement in the restructuring industry. A worthy candidate may be an attorney, judge, banker, turnaround manager, academic, or other restructuring industry professional. She can be actively employed or recently retired from the restructuring industry - and from anywhere in the world. To make sure we don't miss anyone, we need your help.
IWIRC membership is NEITHER a requirement to make a nomination, nor to be honored as the 2016 Woman of the Year in Restructuring.
Take a few minutes to consider a woman who...
- Inspires and skillfully leads a restructuring team
- Provides creative solutions and innovative legal applications
- Creates win-win-win outcomes for her clients
- Shows exceptional leadership and/or advancement of women
- Is making an extraordinary contribution in the restructuring industry
- Consistently goes above and beyond . . . and makes a difference
These achievements do not have to be noticed in nationally renowned cases. Landmark decisions are not a requirement for recognition. Please think outside of the box in making nominations. We welcome all entries and are not just looking for the most senior women or the leaders in the most important mega cases! Please consider those women who have consistently demonstrated a commitment to enhancing the restructuring industry and promoting women through their commitment and actions.
