The IoD award comes as NextiraOne announced a significant investment into its Managed Services portfolio, and highlights further NextiraOne\u2019s commitment, as an organisation and by its people, in delivering effective service and business value to customers.<\/p>\n<p>This award celebrates Mark\u2019s ongoing achievements and his continued hard work, in developing NextiraOne\u2019s Managed Services offering and customer success. As a consistent high performer in both Sales and Leadership roles at NextiraOne, Mark was a \u201cHighly Commended\u201d runner up in the IoD\u2019s awards last year and shortlisted again this year from the hundreds of applicants. Mark proved himself in front of an interview panel as the deserved winner of such an outstanding award.<\/p>\n<p>Mark, who is based in Sutton Coldfield, was presented his award by John Phillips, IoD Regional Director, who recognised in Mark his exceptional ability to lead, and to think on his feet. He commented; \u201cWe had a tremendous response to our Director of the Year awards this year and the Small to Medium Enterprise Category was particularly competitive with a very high standard of entrants.  However, the judges could not fail to be impressed with Mark\u2019s entrepreneurial spirit, his thirst for knowledge through lifelong learning and his genuine commitment to corporate social responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark Petty added: \u201cLast year I was highly commended in the Young Director of the Year Awards 2012 and it\u2019s nice to go one stage further and win an award this year against very strong executive competition. It\u2019s a great personal and professional achievement for me and whilst it\u2019s an individual award, it is really the culmination of the effort, commitment and on-going support of my family, friends and colleagues at NextiraOne.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NextiraOne\u2019s continued business efforts are rewarded with highly-recognised industry award<span class=\"more-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/?p=2331\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2700,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[70],"class_list":["post-2331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-nextiraone"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2331","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2331"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2331\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2358,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2331\/revisions\/2358"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2700"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2331"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2331"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.telecomstalk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2331"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
