Feb 22, 2011
WASHINGTON—George Washington University Chief Information Officer David Steinour has been named as one of Computerworld’s Premier 100 Information Technology (IT) Leaders. Mr. Steinour is being recognized by Computerworld for his exceptional technology leadership, innovative ideas and the positive impact he has made on the university’s Division of Information of Technology. He will receive his award during the Premier 100 IT Leaders Conference to be held March 6-8, 2011, in Palm Desert, Calif.
“I am honored to be included in this distinguished list of technology leaders. This award is a tribute to the Division of Information Technology staff and all the long hours and hard work they put into providing high quality support and services to the GW community,” said Mr. Steinour.
GW’s Division of IT employs more than 285 staff who work with students, faculty, staff and departments across the university to provide advanced technology solutions.
“The Premier 100 awards program honors an elite group of IT executives," said Scot Finnie, editor in chief of Computerworld. "In the face of the past few years of economic turmoil that for many meant budget cuts and staff downsizing, these 100 men and women continued to innovate and deliver measurable business value. They begin 2011 recharged and ready, positioning their departments and their businesses for speed and growth. We’re pleased to honor the achievements of these 100 men and women who deliver strategic vision and seamless leadership through turbulent times.”
Each year nominees are invited to complete a survey that addresses a number of topics, including their background and experience and their attitude toward risk and innovation. Using Computerworld’s IT Leader Index and using the data from the index, which is a measurement of how closely an individual matches our definition of the IT Leader, the data is analyzed. Each year, 100 honorees are selected to receive this life-time recognition award. Information on previous honorees can be viewed at: http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9120281/Premier_100_Alumni
