WOBURN, MA--(Marketwire - May 12, 2011) - Tami Bonnell, President of the US Organization of EXIT Realty Corp. International was named a Finalist today in the category of Executive of the Year - Services in the 2011 American Business Awards.

The American Business Awards are the nation's premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations -- public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

This year's Stevie Award winners will be announced during the annual gala on Monday, June 20 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City. More than six-hundred executives from across the U.S.A. are expected to attend. The event will benefit Camfed (camfed.org), which fights poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa by educating girls and empowering women to become leaders of change. The ceremonies will be broadcast on radio nationwide by the Business TalkRadio Network.

More than 2,800 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in more than 40 categories, including Most Innovative Company of the Year, Management Team of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year, and Executive of the Year.

Being a steady, reliable, accessible source of accurate information and more importantly, an expert interpreter of that information in the public eye, has set Ms Bonnell apart. As President of EXIT Realty's U.S. Organization since 2001, she has been a featured speaker at several industry events, including many Women's Council of REALTORS® events and the upcoming RISMedia Achieve! Conference in New York City later this month.

Finalists were chosen by business professionals nationwide during preliminary judging in April and May.
