We are proud to honor Jim Sisk at our 2026 Anixter Experience event as our Impact Leader Award recipient.

Since joining our Board in 2013, Jim has helped guide Anixter Center through growth and change with steady leadership, thoughtful insight, and a strong commitment to our mission. His impact is not defined by a single moment, but by years of showing up, asking the right questions, building partnerships and helping move our work forward.

Join us in recognizing Jim for his leadership and the impact he continues to drive across our organization and for those we serve.
