While we are all celebrating our doctors, nurses, and other health care workers, and our scientists and researchers, as well as our public servants – we need to recognize our own heroes.

Just as the hard work of grocery and pharmacy teams are keeping our pantries and medicine cabinets full,  all of the teams in our industry, at digital platforms, channels and retailers; at content companies; and at all of the service and technology companies that facilitate the flow of content ultimately to the consumer, are playing an important role in providing the needed entertainment to keep everyone sane during these stay-at-home days.

We need to recognize our own heroes.  Who on your team has gone out of his or her way to help their neighbors, to help their community, to support the health care workers, or to just do something good during the pandemic?  Or, who on your team has gone out of his or her way to help your company continue to serve its customers during these crazy COVID-19 crisis days?

Send us a brief paragraph nominating your “hero(es)”.  If possible, send along a photo of him/her.  In mid-June we will hold an online live ceremony – recognizing all the heroes and presenting a few special awards.  Please send us all nominations no later than May 30 to mfisher@ottx.org and include our ottx hero in your subject line.
