• The Baltimore-Washington Corridor Chamber of Commerce recently honored TKG President Richard Knight with its President's Award in recognition of Mr. Knight's efforts on behalf of the chamber and surrounding business community.

  Walt Townshend, President of the Corridor Chamber, noted of The Knight Group, "The writer, Warren Bennis, said, 'Leaders must encourage their organizations to dance to forms of music yet to be heard.' This organization is represented in no less than four committees within the Chamber. Whether it's Procurement, Government Affairs, the Business Information Council or a Homeland Security Forum, this group--led by this MBA from the Darden School of Business--takes the lead, helps us keep a sense of humor and truly helps us dance to forms of music yet to be heard."

  Mr. Knight serves as co-chair of the chamber's Economic Development Committee (EDC) and guides the development of close to half a dozen EDC conferences and workshops annually.
