Devereux Arizona’s Lane Barker Captures C-Suite Award

news_2017_november_2_20171.pngDevereux Advanced Behavioral Health Arizona Executive Director Lane Barker was recently named Phoenix Business Journal’s “CEO of the Year” in its inaugural “C-Suite Awards” event on October 19.

The C-Suite Awards, held at the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch, recognizes Phoenix's top executives for their contributions and commitment to the community and their outstanding professional performance. In prior years, the Phoenix Business Journal has recognized different segments of the C-Suite for individual awards.

This year, the magazine compiled those honors to recognize those who serve as CEOs, chief financial officers, chief operating officers, chief marketing officers and general counsel. Barker was one of three finalists after the publication received dozens of nominations for each honor.

“I am extremely honored to receive this award from the Phoenix Business Journal,” said Devereux Arizona Executive Director Lane Barker. “But even more importantly, I am grateful and humbled to lead our amazing Devereux Arizona team as we work together to live our mission: to unlock and nurture human potential for people living with emotional, behavioral and cognitive differences.”
