"Dedicated CFOs and other financial executives are at the core of FEI's
success, and this prestigious honor gives us a chance to applaud those
individuals with a career history of strong leadership, ethics and
innovation, values that have been crucial to FEI since 1931. Our inaugural
Hall of Fame received such a remarkable response from our members and
colleagues and allowed us to recognize five outstanding individuals. We are
excited to review the new class of leaders nominated for this year's Hall
of Fame."
"Exceptional leadership is crucial to any organization, and we look
forward to recognizing the contributions of those great leaders who have
made a contribution to the finance profession through their performance and
integrity," said Richard Woodward, Regional Managing Partner, Strategic
Clients, Deloitte & Touche USA LLP. "We are proud to be actively involved
