League of Women in Government Announces 2020 Leadership Trailblazer Award Top 10 Finalists

The League of Women in Government (LWG) and National Research Center, Inc. (NRC)  jointly announced the finalists for the 2020 Leadership Trailblazer Award.

Announcing the finalists, League President, Kelly Houghteling added, “Of the amazing nominees from across the country, the judges felt these ten finalists best captured the spirit of the award. Being recognized as a Top 10 Finalist is a wonderful tribute to all of these remarkable leaders.”

Nominations for the Leadership Trailblazer Award were submitted primarily by local government professionals who wanted to see a dedicated colleague recognized on a national scale. A panel of judges from LWG and NRC reviewed each nomination and selected the top ten finalists. The winner will be announced in mid-December.  This year’s award recipient will also be inducted into the League of Women in Government Hall of Fame along with the 2019 winner, Lori Sassoon, Deputy City Manager of Rancho Cucamonga, California and the 2018 winner, Opal Mauldin-Jones, City Manager of Lancaster, Texas.
