Schneider National's Shaleen Devgun Recognized as one of Computerworld's Premier 100 IT Leaders for 2010
GREEN BAY, Wis. - January 19, 2010 - Schneider National, Inc., a premier provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, today announced that Shaleen Devgun, vice president of strategy, planning and architecture, was recently selected as one of IDG's Computerworld's Premier 100 IT Leaders for 2010. This honor is bestowed annually on 100 leaders from both the technology and business sides of companies for their exceptional technology leadership, innovative ideas to business challenges and effective managed IT strategies.
Devgun was selected as a Premier 100 IT Leader from over 1,000 nominees who were measured against Computerworld's IT Leadership Index, which weighs a set of characteristics that describes executives who guide the effective use of IT in their organizations.
The goal of Premier 100 is to recognize individuals who have had a positive impact on their organization through technology, and without a doubt, Shaleen has done just that here at Schneider, said Judy Lemke, executive vice president and CIO for Schneider National. He exhibits the ability to collaborate on strategic business goals and identify how key technology trends can be harnessed to amplify the rate and pace of business achievement. He is closely in tune with technology industry trends and is always in a position to drive strategic actions that accelerate growth and profitability.
The Premier 100 awards program shines a spotlight on the best of IT leadership and innovation, said Scot Finnie, editor-in-chief, Computerworld. Despite a tough economy, these senior IT leaders are seizing this rare moment to steer measured growth, embark on innovative pilots and build loyalty in their most valued workers. We're pleased to honor the achievements of these 100 men and women who epitomize calm and steady IT leadership.
Lemke continues, Shaleen is also widely admired for the positive and rewarding work environment he creates among his colleagues, who cite a high degree of transparency, accountability and open communication as hallmarks of his leadership style. Clearly, we are very lucky to have a person of Shaleen's caliber as such a critical part of our team, and we're beyond thrilled to learn he was named to this prestigious list.
