Chicago, IL, July 21, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Vision 2020, a national project working to achieve equality, is seeking five pairs of women and men that demonstrate shared leadership and make a positive impact on their organizational cultures to honor with Equality in Action Medals in Chicago on Oct. 12, 2011, at a public leadership event.
The Equality in Action Medals will recognize these outstanding leaders’ contributions during Kudos & Comedy, an afternoon program of Vision 2020’s second annual congress, Vision + Action = Equality in Motion, being held Oct. 11-13 in Chicago with visionary leaders from across the country.
