Palm Beach Gardens, FL – ING (The International Network of Golf) announced the winners of the prestigious 21st Annual ING Industry Honors Awards recently and Pam Swensen CEO of the EWGA (Executive Women’s Golf Association) received the association’s Business Achievement Award.
In order to be nominated for the Business Achievement Award, an individual must be responsible for developing a major project or program, significantly exceeding the expectations of their job description, or demonstrating outstanding leadership qualities toward enhancing the game. Either way they have made significant contributions toward improving the way the business of golf is conducted.
Considered the “Academy Awards of the Golf Industry,” the ING Industry Honors Award program is conducted by the non-profit, International Network of Golf, to recognize outstanding achievement in the golf business. Nominations were accepted throughout the year from anyone in the golf industry. Sub-committees trimmed the nominee list down to the top three Finalists in each category and ING members voted electronically to determine the winners.
The names of the winners were announced during the 2014 PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida at the ING Industry Honors Presentation Press Conference on January 23rd.
“I’d like to thank the ING for this prestigious award,” said Pam Swensen, “just being named as a finalist was an honor in itself. I’d also like to share this award with the thousands of EWGA members across the country that make this great association what it is.”
