Last week we announced the Finalists in the 2011 (8th annual) Stevie Awards for Women in Business, the world's premiere honors for women entrepreneurs, executives, and the organizations they run.
This week the final judging process began, to determine the Stevie Award winner in each category from among the Finalists, and the process continues through the end of next week.
Here are the members of the final judging committees who are working hard to determine this year's winners, which will be announced at our 8th annual awards dinner in New York on Friday, November 11 (tickets are now on sale). Thanks to all of them for their hard word and passion!
What do you think of our judging panels?
