Premier 100 nominations: Help us recognize the best

One of the most worthwhile things we do around here is strive to recognize the contributions made by dedicated IT professionals who stand out among their peers. We have a wide range of award and recognition programs associated with our events operation, because we feel strongly that the outstanding accomplishments that characterize the IT profession should be properly recognized.

That effort is largely dependent on the recommendations of our readers, because you're in the best position to witness the accomplishments I'm talking about. We're especially reliant on you to provide nominations for our annual Premier 100 IT Leaders list.

Computerworld is calling for nominations for the Premier 100 IT Leaders class of 2009. We're eager to recognize innovative leaders who are using technology to advance the goals of their businesses, so I invite and encourage you to use this link to submit a nomination. The deadline is May 30.

All of us here sincerely appreciate your participation in this effort. It's one we're especially proud of, and we highly value the collaboration with our readers that makes it possible.
