The Atlanta Regional Commission is all about leadership in the community but the Hero award seeks to highlight those working quietly behind the scenes. ARC serves as a regional convener, bringing diverse stakeholders to the table to address the most important issues facing metro Atlanta. And ARC offers leadership development programs to residents who want to make a difference in the Atlanta region.
This award will be presented to someone in the region who has made a significant contribution by the work that they do that supports the vision of the Atlanta Regional Commission. This person works quietly and tirelessly behind the scenes, affecting change and advancing innovative ideas that benefit the region’s citizens.
This person could work in local government, academic field, civic or community organization or even the corporate world. However, their names aren’t well-known, and their genius may even (or is likely to) be lost in the bigger picture of a project or product.
