CBD Proud of Our Emerging Leader Award Winners

Everyone at CBD is excited for account supervisor Melissa Cary (top) and account executive Katie Whitmore (bottom). They are both recipients of the 2011 Emerging Leader Awards presented by the Chicago Association of Direct Marketing (CADM).

The Emerging Leader Awards honor the area’s best and brightest young marketers, who demonstrate “uncommon promise in strategy, creativity and innovative thinking.”

It’s a wonderful honor for both Katie and Melissa and our agency. They are both highly deserving of this recognition not only for their outstanding current contributions to marketing, but for the larger accomplishments they are sure to achieve in the future.

Since its inception in 2009, the Emerging Leader Awards (EL Awards) have quickly become the the Midwest’s most prestigious recognition for rising star marketing talent.

We invite everyone to join us at the awards dinner Monday, April 9 at the Wit Hotel, Chicago to help us acknowledge and celebrate Melissa and Katie.
