The Dayton Business Journal has named its list of the Top 12 Most Influential People of 2012 in the Dayton Region.
This is a list of the people who have had an impact on the Dayton region through their efforts — both publicly and behind the scenes — during the past year.
The people on this list were selected by the DBJ editorial board.

This group of people, through their actions this year, have shaped the Miami Valley and been involved with efforts this year that should continue to reshape the region in the coming years.
