Vice President of Operations / COO Excellence Award
Every mission runs on a machine nobody applauds until it breaks. This award goes to the operations leader — VP of Operations, COO, Chief Administrative Officer, or equivalent — who built, modernized, or de-risked that machine: HR, facilities, IT, logistics, compliance, process. It is the discipline that rarely gets a stage of its own. This year, it does.
