Background to the Awards



Moving into their 6th year, the Awards are seen as established, high profile and truly pan-Wales. In the current times never was the time more important than for Wales to seek out and identify all those people whose leadership is making a real difference.

Developed by a consortium of professional institutes, voluntary and public sector bodies as well as private companies, the awards seek to recognise and celebrate personal achievement in outstanding leadership and management in Wales.

The organisations within the consortium share a passionate and professional belief that outstanding leadership (in all sectors) is the key driver of the growth of the economy of Wales. So our mission is to champion good leadership and influence leadership development by identifying, recognising and celebrating individuals, who through their leadership contribute to the prosperity of Wales.

The judges seek nominees who through real leadership are making a difference in Wales, impacting positively on moving their business or organisation forward. We believe that leadership is at all levels in an organisation and definitely seeking real leaders, irrespective of their hierarchical role and responsibilities within their business or organisation.

Whether they are a volunteer, core worker, manager or executive, the awards seek to recognise leaders, at any level, whose leadership is making a difference in Wales and resulting in positive outcomes for their project, business or community.
