Nomination Deadline for Daniels Fund Ethical Leadership Award Sept. 21

The nomination deadline for the Daniels Fund Ethical Leadership Award is Friday, Sept. 21.

The leadership award is a joint venture among the Daniels Fund, the University of Wyoming College of Business and the Wyoming Business Alliance/Wyoming Heritage Foundation. The award was created to recognize Wyoming citizens who embody the ethical leadership principles exhibited by Bill Daniels, a cable-television pioneer who started his professional career in Casper, says Kent Noble, the UW Bill Daniels Chair of Business Ethics.

“Those nominating candidates are encouraged to do so as soon as possible,” Noble says.
