In order to shine a spotlight on the organizations, individuals and teams that strive for excellence in the workplace each day, the Stevie® Awards today officially issued the call for entries for its Ninth Annual [American Business Awards](http://www.stevieawards.com/aba).  (I say "officially" because entries have been coming in since October.) ![ABA Logotype](https://blog.stevieawards.com/hs-fs/file-13813054-gif/images/head_abalogo.gif)The American Business Awards are the only all-encompassing awards program that honors outstanding performances in the American workplace.
