Bridgend County Borough Council's Head of Trading Standards Lee Jones has been named a finalist in the 2009 Leading Wales Awards. The Awards seek to recognise and celebrate outstanding leaders across Wales.
Lee was one of the three finalists in Business Leadership in the Community category sponsored by the Church in Wales.
The Leading Wales Awards recognise great leadership at all levels across the public, private and voluntary sectors in Wales, celebrating individuals whose excellent leadership skills have made a strong impact and resulted in positive change within their organisations or communities.
"Wales has outstanding leaders in all walks of life and the awards celebrate the people who, thanks to their superb leadership skills, have made a real difference in their organisation, business or community," said Barbara Chidgey, spokesperson for the Leading Wales Awards, the consortium of public, private and voluntary sector organisations that developed and organise the awards.
"Once again, we've had a fantastic response to our request for nominations, with nominations from right across Wales and from all walks of life. In these challenging financial times it has been inspirational and heart warming to read of so many individual people whose leadership is making a real difference here in Wales. Our finalists have all made an impact with their leadership and we are delighted to be able to recognise and celebrate their success with these awards."
