Principal Deputy Chief Information Officer of the Department of Defense Leslie Beavers was presented with her 2024 Wash100 Award on stage at the Potomac Officers Club’s 5th Annual CIO Summit by Executive Mosaic CEO Jim Garrettson last week.
Of Beavers, Garrettson said: “She has played a pivotal role in the DOD’s customer and user experience initiatives, and she’s well-known for being a changemaker in the department. We’re thrilled to welcome Leslie into the 2024 Wash100 Class for her first year of recognition.”
Garrettson founded the Wash100 Award in 2014 to recognize the best and brightest beacons of leadership, innovation and vision in the government contracting industry. Winners include C-suite executives, military generals, behind-the-scenes engineers and other important figures who are taking GovCon into the future.
Once the winners list is announced in January, EM stages an exciting popular vote contest, where the general public weighs in to select their most beloved awardee. The champion is revealed at the beginning of May, which means less than a week remains in the contest. Cast your 10 votes now at Wash100.com!
Beavers won her first Wash100 Award this year due to her praiseworthy work to modernize cybersecurity and information technology like cloud at the Pentagon. Learn more about her career and qualifications here.
