Brits are good at hiding their light under a bushel, but it’s time to let it shine. Here at Image Reports we’re launching a new editorial campaign – to find the wide- format print sector’s brightest bosses, and give them the recognition they deserve.
In 2015 we’ll be running a series of ‘Leading Lights’ articles on those print company managers that are a source of inspiration to those around them because of their vision, passion and ability to drive forward the business development agenda. If that sounds like you, don’t be bashful, get online and complete the nomination form at: www.imagereportsmag.co.uk/leadinglights. If that sounds like someone you know and admire, please do likewise.
We’ve seen transformational change within the wide-format digital inkjet sector and at the businesses operating within it since Image Reports was relaunched as a wide-format specific title in 2008. Today it’s one of the most vibrant parts of the print industry and - technology developments aside - that has a lot to do with those print company managers that have led from the front.
There was a time when business plans and strategic thinking were mere hazy concepts to print firm bosses. We’ve come a long way since then, and it’s time to shine a light on the management skills of those that are creating a sustainable industry. There’s no whizzy new flatbed printer prize or a lifetime’s supply of free ink, just public recognition of the fabulous people that continue to shape this ever changing sector.
I look forward to hearing from you, and in the meantime enjoy our latest issue of Image Reports.
