Chartwell's Best Practices Awards 2024
Excellence in Customer Transformational Leadership
About the Award
Transitioning to the new energy ecosystem demands more from utilities and their leadership teams than ever before. Successfully engaging, supporting, and leading customers to this new ecosystem requires utilities to embrace customers’ increasing expectations of a seamlessly personalized experience to achieve and sustain loyalty and growth.
Chartwell’s new award for Excellence in Customer Transformational Leadership recognizes a North American utility that has undertaken groundbreaking efforts to lead its customers and stakeholders toward the clean energy future, as well as the individuals in executive leadership positions who are driving those initiatives.
The inaugural award will be presented at a ceremony during Chartwell’s 27th annual EMACS – The Customer Experience Conference, set for Oct. 8-11, 2024, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in San Antonio, Texas.
We look forward to reading about all the innovative efforts your utility is undertaking to support your customers at this critical time in our industry.
- As this award is the highest Chartwell honor, there will only be one award presented in this category each year.
- Since we know a transformational effort takes a village, we request that the sponsoring executive from your utility accept the award on behalf of the utility team’s effort.
- The award entry window has closed. The winning utility will be notified in late June 2024.
