After a record-shattering turnout of votes and participation from the government contracting (GovCon) community and all-time anticipation, Executive Mosaic is thrilled to announce that Dr. Stacey Dixon, deputy director of the National Geospatial Agency (NGA) has finished in first place in the 2021 Wash100 Vote Standings.
This also marks the first time a government official has received the most votes in the Wash100 Vote Standings after seven years of the honor going to an elite member of industry.
“Following the selection of the industry’s most consequential leaders, Executive Mosaic goes to the community itself to vote on the popularity of those winners," said Jim Garrettson, CEO of Executive Mosaic and founder of the Wash100 Award. ”Over the years, we have seen shifting results but no previous year has seen this volume of participation and a major shift towards the significant number of winners from Government versus GovCon services."
Here are the final Top 10 results for the 2021 Wash100 Vote Standings:
In previous years, the Wash100 Vote Standings winner would secure first place with less than a thousand votes, but Dixon received almost four times as many votes to win the most competitive Wash100 voting season in the eight-year history of the award.
Every year, the Wash100 Award gains more prestige within our community to represent the efforts and accomplishments as well as the diversity and representation of the most significant leaders of consequence to the federal landscape.
The participation and overwhelming turnout from the GovCon and federal community in this year’s voting season clearly demonstrates the importance of the Wash100 Award and its place in the federal sector to recognize the success of our key members and showcase their initiatives to drive the federal sector forward.
“Take a moment as you read this to think of someone who has made an impact on you and tell them. Federal service is hard and it takes a lot of luck and perseverance to get things done,” said Air Force CIO Lauren Knausenberger. “It’s incredibly rewarding, nothing else comes close, so let’s keep all of these warfighters and civil servants fueled with knowledge of their amazing impact!”
