The Dayton Business Journal has named its list of the Top 10 Most Influential People of 2010 in the Dayton Region.
This is a list of the people who have had an impact on the Dayton region through their efforts — both publicly and
behind the scenes — for the past year.
The people on this list were selected by the DBJ editorial board.
“This year’s list of most influential is the distillation of hundreds of names of business leaders in the region. These are the folks we have seen this year moving the business and job growth needle with the most impact. We hope you will tell us if you think differently,” said Neil Arthur, president and publisher of the DBJ. “We have also looked ahead and see some business leaders who we think are ready to have a significant influence on the region’s business in 2011. We will keep tabs all year long.”
Among the criteria for being on the list was having been responsible for things that have helped shape our community, for better or worse. This group of people, through their actions this year, have shaped the Miami Valley and been involved with efforts this year that should continue to reshape the region in the coming years.
These 10 people will be recognized in a special report in the Dec. 24 issue of the DBJ. That issue will feature bios and stories on the people on the list, as well as revealing the ranking order. A “People’s Choice” ranking survey will appear online in the coming days to get our reader’s take on who has had the most impact on the region this year. The report in the paper will include several sub-lists, such as our predictions of who will have the most influence during the coming year.
The following is an alphabetized list of the people who are being recognized by the DBJ for their impact on our region during this year.
