The Innovators: People Who Make a Difference

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – They’re the risk takers, the out-of-box thinkers and the status quo challengers. They go against the grain and forge their own paths to success.

They’re innovators and The Business Journal asked our readers to nominate people who have made a difference in their companies and communities.

As has become our custom during the month of May, designated as National Small Business Month, we ask readers to tell us who is worthy of recognition. In past years, we solicited nominations for Great Places to Work and Great Co-workers. This year, we asked who’s leading the way forward.
