BOLT ON TECHNOLOGY is pleased to announce that its operations manager, Ken Gilliam, was selected by SmartCEO to receive the 2017 Executive Management Award. The Executive Management Awards (EMA) program recognizes the leadership and accomplishments of Philadelphia’s management all-stars.

Gilliam recently celebrated his five-year anniversary with BOLT ON TECHNOLOGY. “Ken’s been a member of the BOLT ON team since the early days when our office space was only 80 square feet and located in the back of a local repair shop,” said BOLT ON TECHNOLOGY Founder and CEO Mike Risich. “Now, we are situated comfortably in 18,000 square feet and continuously growing. Ken’s been an instrumental part of this growth and our innovation over the past five years, and we are so happy to celebrate this honor with him.”

“Behind every great CEO is a team of smart, driven executives dedicated to ensuring a company’s growth and success. This year’s EMA winners are perfect examples of all-star executives. Not only do they inspire their own teams to achieve greater heights, they also believe deeply in their companies’ missions, are consummate community stewards, and are dedicated to excellence, always,” said Jaime Nespor-Zawmon, president of SmartCEO. “We’re honored to share their stories and celebrate their great accomplishments.”

The Executive Management Awards program recognizes the leadership and accomplishments of Philadelphia’s management all-stars — the CFOs, CIOs/CTOs, COOs and other C-suite executives leading the region’s top companies. Winners are recognized for their creative management vision, leadership philosophy, innovative strategy and undeniable work ethic. The 2017 EMA winners’ companies collectively generate more than $3.5 billion in annual revenue. This year’s winners will be recognized in SmartCEO magazine and were celebrated at an awards ceremony on March 8 at the Ballroom at the Ben.
