Leadership is the capacity to translate
vision into reality. -
Warren Bennis
How do we
translate vision into reality? How do we, as a region, take a long-range
transportation plan and translate it into tangible projects, programs, and
policies that benefit Treasure Valley residents?
While that
question may sound rhetorical, it isn’t. There are people taking the lead every
day on projects that implement the long-range transportation plan, Communities in Motion 2040 2.0,
and improve the lives of everyone who lives or visits here.
Every year,
COMPASS honors those people, businesses/nonprofits, and projects that have
demonstrated leadership in implementing Communities in Motion 2040 2.0
through our Leadership in Motion awards.
Review the nomination
criteria, consider who is leading the charge in your community, then
take a moment to nominate him or her, or a project, business, or nonprofit for
a Leadership in Motion award. It’s quick and easy – we never want the awards
process to deter someone from submitting a nomination or prevent a worthy
leader from being recognized.
Unsure who or
what might be award-worthy? Check out last year’s winners
for inspiration and ideas. At the same time, I encourage you to think outside
the box and not limit yourself to traditional “transportation” projects. Implementing
a transportation plan can take many forms.
This year’s
awards will recognize efforts and projects that occurred between July 2018 and
June 2019. Nominations
will be accepted through 12:00 noon, Monday, September 23, 2019. Leadership in
Motion awards will be presented on Monday, December 16, 2019, at the
COMPASS/Valley Regional Transit Board Holiday Luncheon.
