The year 2020 was difficult for everyone, but it seems there is hope to be found in 2021, with more of the population receiving coronavirus vaccines and restrictions lessening. People are starting to feel safe once more and are picking up where they left off before the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to their normal, everyday lives. That means people are not only returning to in-person work, but they are also focusing once again on activities outside the office, including community service and outreach.
West Virginia Executive (WVE) magazine recognizes the Sharp Shooters Class of 2021—those who never stop giving and helping, no matter the circumstances. Perhaps more than ever, these Sharp Shooters serve as an example as they lead in their careers and inspire others within their fields with their dedication and commitment. While the world stopped as we knew it for a time, their giving and efforts did not.
With a variety of titles, backgrounds and career successes, together these honorees embody what it means to be true West Virginians, to help one another while making the Mountain State the best possible place to live, work and play. Sharp Shooters have been dedicated to West Virginia for most of their professional lives, and WVE honors them as they honor their fellow natives. Let them serve as an inspiration to you. As interest in West Virginia blossoms, as we have seen through research and moving trends, it is all the more important to show the world the best of Almost Heaven and showcase those who make it so.
Sharp Shooters are West Virginians over the age of 43 who have been in their positions for at least five years and actively participate in community service, philanthropic endeavors and any efforts to move the Mountain State forward. WVE is proud to introduce the Sharp Shooters Class of 2021.
If you know someone who is making an impact in their career and community, nominate them for the Sharp Shooters Class of 2022. Nominations are open year-round and can be found at www.wvexecutive.com/sharp-shooter-nomination-form.
Meet the 2021 class of Sharp Shooters.
