"In these challenging times, Gary Norcross has charted an
exemplary path forward for FIS, a company that demonstrates a
strong commitment to not only supporting but to expanding corporate
responsibility practices,” said Lori Esposito Murray, President of
CED. "There is simply no blueprint for business leaders in this
moment, which is why CED believes it is particularly important to
honor Gary's clear-eyed, strategic leadership that supports the
nation's recovery and long-term interest."
