The America Competes Award for Corporate Leadership is given to individuals who, by their examples and their business practices, have shown a deep concern for the common good beyond the bottom line. These corporate leaders personify commitment to outstanding corporate leadership both at home and abroad in the belief that for-profit firms should be good citizens in their own neighborhoods and in the world at large. The America Competes Award for Public Service is presented to individuals who have served with distinction in public life and have shown a special commitment to seeking out informed opinions and thoughtful views that impact change. Recipients of this award share a steadfast belief in public discourse, scholarship, and the extension of the benefits of knowledge in the US and around the world. These leaders devote themselves to examining the historical and economic background and long-term implications of important public policy issues and encourage the free and open exchange of ideas that are the bedrock of our nation's foundation.
