Veteran Leadership Award

For over two decades, Profiles in Leadership Journal has celebrated individuals who have forged new paths, mentored others and excelled in their fields. In our upcoming third-quarter issue, PLJ will proudly recognize Military Veteran Leaders through the 2025 Veteran Leadership Awards.
We honor those who have dedicated part of their lives to serving our country—whether in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard, or Space Force. We invite you to participate by nominating one or more team members who have emerged as exceptional Veteran Leaders through their advocacy, perseverance, legacy, or professional achievements.
Why Nominate?
Your nomination offers a significant opportunity to celebrate and showcase these outstanding individuals’ talents, ambitions, and achievements. Recognizing these leaders honors their service and underscores your organization’s commitment to excellence and leadership development.
Who Are these Outstanding Individuals?
Nominated by employers or colleagues, Veteran Leaders are confident, determined, and purpose-driven professionals who create lasting value for their coworkers, customers, communities, and the organizations they serve.
Throughout its history, Profiles in Leadership Journal has recognized thousands of men and women worldwide who are making a difference. The profiles featured in this special edition will celebrate our Veteran Leadership awardees while enhancing the reputation of organizations that empower, support, and champion these remarkable individuals.
Join us in honoring those who lead by example and continue to inspire through their dedication, strength, and leadership.
