Two reasons the last day of #ClarisEngage2020 felt special to me: it marked the conclusion of our first virtual conference, and we recognized our Claris Partners and Community. Albeit different in format this year, our annual awards ceremony allows us to celebrate outstanding achievements from members of our global community. This year’s winners are so deserving!
Between now and #ClarisEngage2021, you’ll notice a series of monthly blogs highlighting individual category winners. To launch this celebration series, I’m thrilled to feature this year’s award winners, highlight their contributions, and share a bit about the selection criteria for each.
