All you chief compliance officers with hotshot deputies, here’s your chance to do something nice for them so they won’t decamp to greener pastures: The Millstein Center for Corporate Governance is accepting nominations for its second annual Rising Stars of Corporate Governance award.
The award recognizes up-and-coming players in corporate governance, and is open to anyone anywhere in the world who does anything plausibly related to furthering good governance: corporate executives, independent analysts, outside activists, and the like. Nominees can hail from corporations, academic bodies, institutional investors, auditors, advisory firms, rating agencies, proxy services, professional associations, and others. The only restriction is that nominees must be under 40 as of June 10, 2009. (Full disclosure: I won a Rising Star award last year.)
