NEW DELHI:
Alkesh Kumar Sharma, the CEO and Managing Director of the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICDC), has been named CEO of the Year for Green Management and Future Leadership at the prestigious Golden Globe Tigers Award 2017.
The Golden Globe Tigers Award, established by the World CSR Institute, recognise “Tigers” in marketing, branding CSR & social innovation, education & academic across leadership levels in individual and organisation.
Sharma, a 1990 batch IAS officer, has been heading the DMICDC since 2015 overseeing India’s largest and most ambitious infrastructure project.
The awards were announced at a glittering ceremony held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Monday (April 24) attended by representatives from 43 countries, although Mr Sharma was unable to receive the award in person due to his schedule.
