Recognizing In-House Leadership & Excellence

In 2006, the Forum initiated the Magna Stella® Awards program to recognize in-house excellence in Texas corporations, organizations and government agencies. The name “Magna Stella” means great, or magnificent star. Stella winners are shining examples of the type of leadership the Forum strives to exemplify in its membership. This year’s Magna Stella Awards Dinner will take place on Thursday, November 21, 2024. The dinner is held in conjunction with the Forum’s 26th Annual Conference at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio, Texas.
