Honours, Plaudits, And Awards

Please enjoy the thoughts and musings of our friend, supporter, and long-time contributor Art van Bodegraven Jr., who passed away on June 18, 2017. Art was a prolific writer and had amassed a collection of unpublished blog posts he had planned to run well into the future. To honor his memory, we will continue to post these remaining blogs as he had intended. If you’ve been a fan of The Art of Art blog, check out our tribute.

 

My esteemed publishers at Agile Business Media have scored the Red Carpet treatment of Tony's, Oscars, Grammy's, Obie's and Golden Globes in the age of print media.  The May 2017 issue reported honours presented by the American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE) with Regional Azbee awards for editorial excellence.

My bias is that recognition comes from a clear separation of the editorial and advertising sides of the house, in a trade press chock-full of faux ads disguised as news and case reports.

The Agile publications cited include: DC Velocity; and CSCMP's Supply Chain Quarterly.

Individual awards landed in the laps of: Toby Gooley, SCQ Editor; Mark Solomon, DCV Executive Editor - News; Agile's Group Editorial Director, Mitch Mac Donald; and Karen Bachrach, DCV's Executive Editor - Features.

No, president Trump; we do not get tired of winning.

And, these are winners, all.   Deserved congratulations!
