ENX Magazine is proud to unveil its list of 2022 Difference Makers. It is the culmination of months’ worth of nominations by you, our valued reader, in helping to bring these tales of success to the foreground. The 63 honorees will be featured in the May issue of ENX Magazine, which will hit the mail stream in about a week. An electronic version of the magazine will also be available for your perusal on our website shortly.
As is customary, we will look to provide you with more in-depth personality profiles for this year’s winners that will appear in our newsletter, The Week in Imaging. These pieces will seek to drill down deeper into the honorees, to find out what makes these women and men tick and to learn more about their successful journeys.
Given the events of the past year, particularly in relation to the Great Resignation and the millions of Americans who changed jobs, it is more important than ever for employers, clients and business partners to show appreciation for the often-unheralded efforts of our industry’s most valuable players. While an acknowledgment such as this may seem like a token gesture, expressing such gratitude goes a long way at a time when loyalty is in short supply and monetary rewards are not always feasible.
Speaking of gratitude, we want to thank our loyal readers for taking time from their busy schedules to submit nominations. This program wouldn’t be possible without you, so we wish to convey our heartfelt appreciation for supporting our magazine. And of course, we offer our sincere congratulations to the 2022 Difference Makers. It is because of you that our industry remains vibrant, even during the most challenging (and evolving) circumstances that are disrupting the normal course of business. With your help, the industry will find its way through this maze of business disruption and musical chairs.
