FAQ:

What is the nomination process and the steps to take?

Once the online nomination form is completed an automated email will be sent to the individual nominated (the email address entered in the “Nominee Email” field) and a submission receipt will be sent to the email placed in the “Nominator’s Email” field.

In order for the nominee to continue with the process they must fill out the application form by the application deadline listed in the automated email and on the corresponding event landing page.

We also recommend submitting up to three letters of recommendation to libn.com/letters-of-recommendation-submission-form by the application deadline to be included in the nominee’s judging packet as supporting materials. This is not a requirement, but an added benefit.

How can I or my organization be considered for the Executive Circle Award?

While anyone can nominate, we recommend nominations come from a senior leader in the organization. It is then required that the nominee go through the entire application process, please see above response for more details on that.

What are the judges looking for when selecting the Executive Circle honorees?

It is essential that the candidate has consistently demonstrated remarkable leadership and integrity, demonstrates commitment to community and is dedicated to charitable efforts across Long Island. It is helpful to have at least one letter of recommendation from someone that can speak to this.

Can I save the nomination or application forms while I’m working on them?

Unfortunately, at this time you cannot, but we’re working to fix that. In the meantime, we suggest either filling out the forms on a separate sheet of paper and/Word Doc first or be prepared to spend some time in the form.

If I’m an honoree, do I need to purchase a ticket?

You do not need to purchase a ticket for yourself if you are an honoree. All other attendees must purchase a ticket. Please, note that all LIBN events are limited attendance based on location. Honorees and sponsors are guaranteed tickets. Individual tickets will only go on sale if space is available after sponsorship deadlines.

What is included in sponsorship packages?

Sponsorship opportunities to include a table for your guests, multimedia marketing, logo usage and much more depending on the level your company selects. For more sponsorship information and benefits please contact your account manager or email [email protected].

Can I buy an ad in the publication?

Please contact Suzanne Fischer-Huettner to place an add or purchase a sponsorship package. libn.com/letters-of-recommendation-submission-form
