2010 Risk Innovator & Responsibility Leader Award Winners

2010 RISK INNOVATOR^™& RESPONSIBILITY LEADER^® WINNERS

The Risk & Insurance^® Risk Innovator^™ Award recognizes winners across different industries who have, in the past year, demonstrated innovation and excellence in risk management. These key individuals see risk differently and have resolved risk-related problems in a unique or innovative way. They view risk not only as a threat, but also as an opportunity for their organizations.

Of these winners, eight were selected to receive an additional designation: Responsibility Leader^®, sponsored by Liberty Mutual. The Responsibility Leader^® honorees were chosen based on the fact that they developed a unique and practical risk solution that benefited not only the organization but the employees and/or community, and were committed to doing the right thing over the easy thing to overcome obstacles. A separate panel of judges reviewed the applications of the Risk Innovator^™ winners to identify eligible candidates. The editors of Risk & Insurance^® then selected the Responsibility Leader^® winners.
