worth all the hard work: Greg Turkanik receives the Distinguished Leader of Merit Award at the Leadership banquet.

This past Wednesday, April 19, at 6:00 P.M. the Center for Leadership Development (CLD) held a dinner ceremony for leadership students at the Citrus Club in the top of the BB&T building in Downtown Orlando.

Among the attendees were Leadership Certificate recipients, Distinguished Leader of Merit (DLM) finalists, the DLM winner, and a number of faculty, staff, administrators, and leaders from the community.

The event started off with some mingling among those at the event, then everyone was treated to a delicious three-course meal complete with coffee and cake. After the guests finished eating, CLD Director Dr. Susan Bach recognized the leaders in the room, from both Crummer and the community, and offered her highest commendations of these attendees as well as the leadership students.

Those students receiving the Leadership Certificates, which consisted of both first and second year EAMBAs, stood to be recognized for their accomplishments and received a beautiful framed award.

Immediately following this presentation, leadership students who went above and beyond the requirements for the Leadership Certificate were recognized as DLM finalists, had their pictures taken with Dean Craig McAllaster, and received a beautiful award for their accomplishments.

Finally, Greg Turkanik was recognized as having completed and surpassed the requirements for the Distinguished Leader of Merit and became the second-ever recipient of this prestigious award.

Over the past two years, Greg has attended nearly every event ever held at Crummer, co-founded the Crummer Consulting Club, and has excelled academically. Up next: his own business. Congratulations, Greg, on a job very well done!

The leadership banquet was a very enjoyable event and concluded with a little more mingling and picture taking. At the end, all guests walked away feeling proud of their accomplishments and of the accomplishments of all others present.
