The 2016 awards received entries from 31 nations and territories.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the awards were presented to winners last Friday during a dinner event attended by more than 500 people at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City. The event was broadcast on Livestream.

More than 1,400 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in more than 90 categories.

The site showcases SIA’s annual list of influential female leaders and profiles their impact on the staffing industry and the world of work at large.

“From innovation and performance excellence to driving profitability, the women represented on the Global Power 100 – Women in Staffing list have broken barriers for all of us,” said Subadhra Sriram, Publisher & Editor, SIA. “Although the gender gap may be narrowing, there is still a significant imbalance at the top. Shedding light on the accomplishments of women in the industry and raising awareness is pivotal for the creation of competitive and sustainable organizations that thrive in and enhance the vibrancy of our business communities. It is an honor to be recognized with a Stevie award this year.”
